Residents’ fury as Haxby phone mast plans look set to get go-ahead

A CONTROVERSIAL mobile phone mast looks set to get the go-ahead in Haxby, despite more than 250 people objecting to the plans.

Vodafone wants to put the 40-foot (12.2 metres) mast in Oak Tree Lane, to improve its coverage for central and southern Haxby. It says the site chosen is the best available and says that if the mast were any lower, mobile phone users would get a worse signal.

But 233 residents have signed a petition saying they do not want the mast in their area and a further 23 individual objection letters have also been received.

Objections include claims that the mast will be visually intrusive, that it will reduce house prices in the area, that other phone companies may follow suit, and that if the mast is needed in Haxby, it should be placed in an area with fewer people nearby.

Vodafone was also accused of a lack of consultation, while Hemplands Primary School also objected to the plans.
