Phone mast plan rejected
By Benjamin Parkes
Plans to put up a mobile phone mast in Calne were unexpectedly thrown out by planning councillors who said the structure would spoil the image of that part of the town.
Applicant O2 wanted to build the 15-metre mast with two pavement cabinets on the corner of The Pippin behind the Oxford Road Liberal Club and promised to make it look like surrounding streetlights to minimise visual impact.
That promise wasn't enough for councillors on the North Wiltshire District Council planning committee who agreed with objections from residents and rejected the application on January 10.
Chairman Toby Sturgis, a Conservative, read out a letter from Calne resident Patricia Cullop, which said: "Anyone with half a brain would see that putting this gross pole in the middle of the town would discourage people from visiting and ruin the appearance of the area."
Another speaker, a resident of Calne, said: "The visual amenity of Oxford Road would be impaired by this mast and I think the equipment boxes would cause obstructions for blind people and those with mobility problems."
Conservative councillor Tony Trotman said: "There were 14 letters of objection written by residents and rightly so.
"The scale and the size of the mast is inappropriate especially since it is at the start of a conservation area leading down to The Pippin.
"It beggars belief that O2 could even consider this as a good position for a phone mast."
A representative for the mobile phone company, who was present at the meeting, said: "O2 wants to provide a good phone signal to the people of the area, indeed we have an obligation to improve our service in rural locations.
"We conducted a wide search of the area and selected this site because it is on top of a hill and in the town centre.
"We have taken the appearance of the area into account and the mast would be disguised as a lamppost."
Liberal Democrat councillor Helen Dixon disputed whether the disguise would work.
She said: "This pole is 15-metres high but I have never seen any lampposts that tall. It is too big to replicate a street light and would impact negatively on the local environment."
A district council planning officer, who recommended the mast plan be approved, said: "Unfortunately everyone wants to use mobile phones but nobody wants the masts that provide the network coverage, in their communities."

Mast rejected near hotel
Telecommunications giant Hutchinson 3G has failed in its attempts to install a "completely inappropriate" 12-metre high mast in Kenilworth town centre.
The plans, which included the construction of a black antenna on a verge outside the DeMontfort Hotel, were rejected by members of Warwick District Council's planning committee at a meeting held at Leamington Town Hall on Wednesday.
Among the objectors to the proposal was Kenilworth Town Council, which stated the location was "completely inappropriate and unsuitable".
Speaking on behalf of the council at the meeting, Coun George Illingworth told members he had received a number of letters raising concern about the application and believed he would have received many more if it had not been for the time of year.
He added that many people did not believe the application would be allowed to get as far as it had and feared approval could set a precedent for other mobile phone companies.
Speaking on behalf of the Conservation Area Advisory Forum, Joanna Illingworth also raised concerns. She said: "This application, because it is on the street, is close to Kenilworth's main conservation area and is visible from it."
Coun Michael Coker (Con, Kenilworth Abbey) added: "The area is an important part of the regeneration of the town. Smalley Place is set to be the site of a civic centre. It is the gateway to the town and an important part of it."
This view was shared by committee chairman Coun Richard Tamlin (Lab, Bishops Tachbrook) who raised objections to the plans previously, and because of which, removed himself from Wednesday's debate and vote.
Coun Bertie Mackay (Ind, Stoneleigh) spoke of the equipment that would accompany the mast.
He said: "The problem is not the mast, it is the totality of the equipment. The large box is 1.5m high and that in itself has an enormous impact."
Coun Ann Blacklock (Lib Dem, Kenilworth Abbey) told members she did not share the same concerns.
She explained she had not had any letters or concerns raised to her about it and said that she believed people were "not that bothered". The application was refused by four to two.

Students right to oppose mast
Students at New College are right to be worried about the proposed phone mast in Queens Drive. Parents of children attending Churchfields School have equal reason to be concerned.
It is often said by those with an interest in promoting phone masts, that there is no proof of adverse effects on health.
There is, however, a great deal of evidence that radiation can affect concentration, scramble DNA, and cause cancer and other illnesses.
People are being exposed, without their consent, to radiation which has been shown to be harmful in numerous scientific studies.
The idea that unelected bodies (the mobile phone companies in this case) have a right to expose people to risks unless they can prove harm, amounts to enrolling the population in a giant biological experiment without their consent.
Considering that children, the most vulnerable of all, are included in this experiment, it is shameful that their interests are disregarded so cynically in the pursuit of profit.
The Government-sponsored Stewart Report advocates the precautionary approach' because of gaps in current knowledge about the potential harm that low level radiation can cause.
It seems that this is being ignored by the phone industry, which continues to erect masts in populated areas as if no gaps in our knowledge exist.
Our councillors must pay heed to this problem. I am glad to read that Peter Mallinson is taking an interest.
Let us hope, for our children's sake, that he can persuade others on the council to throw out the proposal for the mast in Queens Drive. Only time will tell.
B Jones (chairman).

Phone mast gets go-ahead from town council
By Laura Thorpe
A PROPOSAL for a 50ft high mobile phone mast to be positioned on land at Wellington's Blackdown Trading Estate near a church has been approved in principle by Wellington town councillors.
The plans submitted by telecommunication giants Hutchinson 3G UK, commonly known as 3, include placing a base station' with mast and antennae at the back of Scotts Lane in the grounds of the King's Church centre.
A majority of councillors thought it was appropriate to have the mast on a trading estate but voted for it to be moved from the corner to a better position on the estate.
Cllr John Clark said: "It seems to me to be in an inappropriate position. I think it will stand out like a sore thumb. There are two masts already in place at the end of Scotts Lane and it would seem more appropriate somewhere up that end."
However Cllr Ross Henley was against the idea altogether and said: "I have been particularly concerned for years about the use of phone masts in this area.
"I think this is a completely inappropriate place.
"I won't support it. I don't accept that we should just move it along a bit - we would be doing people a disservice if we do this."
The amendment to move the mast to another area on the estate was passed and councillors approved the scheme.
The application will now go before Taunton Deane Council.

‘No stopping’ the mast invasion
By Dominic Yeatman
ANOTHER 54 mobile phone masts will be added to the 99 already in Redbridge over the course of the next year if mobile phone operators have their way.
Sixteen of them are destined for Wanstead and Woodford, many within yards of existing masts, and planning permission has already been granted for 13 of the sites identified across the borough.
The proposals have been revealed in the phone operators' annual roll-out plans, which have been submitted to Redbridge Council and were discussed at a meeting of the council's area two committee.
Monkhams ward councillor Jim O'Shea said: "In area two they all seem to be centred around one area in George Lane and we're a bit concerned about why they need to be so concentrated."
Proposed sites include Meadow Walk in Snaresbrook, South Woodford station, the corner of Colvin Gardens and Rodney Road in Snaresbrook, Redbridge station, the Thames Water station in Chigwell Road and Patnam House in George Lane, South Woodford.
Three are earmarked for Woodford Road in South Woodford, including one at Ornwell Lodge and one at Copsfield Court.
Two are set for Aldersbrook Road in Wanstead and two for Wanstead High Street, one at The Hollies and one at Ashford Associates.
Some of them are on the site of existing masts, but that has not reassured anti-phone mast campaigners.
Elizabeth Canavan, who led a long but eventually unsuccessful campaign against a T-Mobile mast in Aldersbrook Road, said: "I would hate to say it's a lost battle, but we're really quite powerless and they are just surging ahead willy nilly.
"They're going to start back pedalling in a few years time, lowering emissions and admitting that they cause problems. You can see it's coming, but at the moment it's just too economically important."
The response of the area committees and the conservation advisory panel will be co-ordinated and presented to the phone companies at a joint meeting in February.
