Returned CPO land

Whilst our "overgrown, unkept and damaging to amenity" trees were destroyed, our homes wrecked through flood damage and our flood risk on a flood plain greatly increased... leaving 15 homes with this view from the windows and gardens...

... noise levels of 135 decibels and constantly coated in carbon, fibreglass, minute particles of metal, soot and fumes, the individual responsible retreats to his tranquil "Woodlands" home to enjoy his peace and quiet.

"Wishy Washy" Rayden Engineering Excuses....

This page highlights the claimed NEED of Rayden Engineering to adversely possess this Flood Zone 3 land for industrial storage purposes..

Derbyshire County Council Compulsory Purchase Ordered a parcel of land to the rear of Rayden Engineering premises for the construction of the Ilkeston bypass. Despite Rayden Engineering claims to the contrary, the top left corner of this aerial photograph shows the true extent this land was used for storage purposes.

CPO "Storage" land

The adversely possessed and developed Flood Zone 3 land adjacent to 15 residential properties comprises 850sm. On the 25th of October 2007 an area of 800sm of surplus to requirements CPO land was returned to Rayden Engineering. In addition, another 877sm of CPO land was also returned, making in total 1677sm of original CPO land returned for storage purposes. Hence the claimed need for the minuscule parcel of flood plain land is not supported by the facts.

Rayden Engineering publicly stated that Erewash Borough Council had donated the flood plain land adjacent to our properties to use as alternative storage in return for the CPO land. As EBC was not the legal owners of this land, they was not in a position to donate the land to anyone, in particular a heavy industry being allowed to expand and operate just 3 metres away from 15 residential properties.

Plot 41 & 43 CPO also returned.

If Erewash Borough Council HAD given land belonging to someone else to a developer, it would explain why the council has for 19 months consistently failed to enforce planning legislation irrespective of the seriousness of the planning breaches and the foreseeable consequential damage accrued, damage which had been ENTIRELY preventable and should have been prevented but was not.

However, it is hard to differentiate between Rayden Engineering fact or fiction as thus far false, misleading or inaccurate documents have been submitted to:

The Valuation Agency Office, East Midlands; Erewash Borough Council Planning & Development Services; Erewash Borough Council Ward Councillor; The Environment Agency; The Planning Inspectorate and Derbyshire Constabulary.
