Peterborough councillors reject million-tonne incinerator (13.01.06)
Peterborough councillors in Peterborough have voted to reject a massive energy-from-waste plant proposed for a site close to the city centre.
A meeting of the full council on Wednesday saw almost two thirds of councillors rejecting outright the proposal by New Zealand company Global Olivine. A further 10 councillors voted to recommend the proposal subject to changes being made, with one abstention.
- Peterborough city council spokeswoman Global Olivine and its UK partner company Peterborough Renewable Energy Ltd (PREL) had wanted to build the £250 million waste incineration plant at the Fengate Industrial Estate.
The decision of the council to reject the plant will now be put before the council's cabinet, before a response is formulated for the Secretary of State.
A spokeswoman for Peterborough city council confirmed: "The council has decided in principal to reject the proposal, this recommendation will now go the cabinet."
