Story
Despite overwhelming community opposition, Powerfuel Portland has announced they are to appeal against Dorset Council’s unanimous decision to REFUSE the Portland Waste Incinerator planning application. We therefore, once again, need to raise funds to engage a legal team to present coherent evidence to the Planning Inspector, in order to ensure this appeal is unsuccessful in it's attempt to overturn the decision of our democratically elected representatives.
WE NEED YOUR HELP AND APPRECIATE ALL DONATIONS
