I strongly object to the proposals to upgrade and reopen Manston Airport via a DCO. My family and I live in Broadstairs so will not be as adversely affected by a filthy, polluting 24 hour cargo hub as our neighbours in Ramsgate. Nevertheless I feel that the proposals for the reopening of the airport can only be a bad thing for Thanet as a whole. I have attend public engagement events put on by Riveroak Strategic Partnership and was in no way convinced that what they were suggesting would be good for the people of Thanet. A well planned mixed use development on the site would clearly be the more positive choice for the area.
