Example: A Local Resident’s Strong Objection
Here’s an anonymised excerpt from a detailed objection letter submitted by a resident near Neilston, (their farm lies under proposed flight paths). It highlights key legal, health and amenity concerns, and shows how to structure a powerful response that’s factual, referenced, and personal. Feel free to adapt it for your own response.
