We had no say on mast
Letters
Jun 29, 2006
I would like to inform Aldridge residents, in particular those living within the vicinity of the Lazy Hill shops, of the imminent erection of a mobile phone mast on the top of the Shimla Restaurant/chip shop, which will be in the form of yet another flag pole as already erected on top of the Cedar Tree public house.
This means that we will now have two mobile phone masts in close proximity to each other. All parties concerned have displayed a total disregard for the residents of this area, especially as most of the groundwork appears to have been carried out over a holiday period when people are away.
There has been no public consultation whatsoever in respect of either of these masts despite being a potential health hazard. They are contrary to the wishes of residents and tenants alike.
I would urge anyone who wishes to raise any objections to write to Mr Norman Hickson, Senior Planning Officer, Planning and Transportation, Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council, Civic Centre, Walsall, WS1 1TP.
Mrs S. Mellar, Walsall Wood Road, Aldridge.
