The council meeting primarily focused on the discussion and decision-making regarding a proposed concrete batching plant at a recycling center. The debate centered on environmental concerns, traffic implications, and the potential benefits to local infrastructure projects.

1. Decision on Concrete Batching Plant: The council debated a proposal for a concrete batching plant intended to support local RAF base construction projects. Concerns were raised about increased traffic, potential noise pollution, and environmental impacts, particularly regarding local wildlife like the Stone Curlew. Proponents argued it would reduce aggregate transport needs by using recycled materials on-site. The decision was deferred for further information on traffic impact, noise levels, and confirmation of where the produced concrete would be used.

Additional Information: The meeting was marked by a significant focus on the environmental impact, with specific attention to the Stone Curlew, a protected species. The deferment reflects the council's cautious approach to environmental conservation and the need for thorough assessment before proceeding with industrial developments.
