Rotherham Council Launches Call for Evidence for Droppingwell Tip

Rotherham Council continues to ‘Invest in Rotherham’s Future’ with development schemes at parks, libraries and towns

Rotherham Council is launching a call for evidence relating to the accessway at Droppingwell Tip.

The access road to the tip is on land owned by the Council, with the owner of the tip, Grange Landfill Ltd, claiming a right of access over the land. Grange Landfill Ltd have provided information to support their claim and the Council is asking the public for any information they may have.

Rotherham Council’s Assistant Director of Legal Services Phillip Horsfield said: “The Council is inviting anyone with additional information on the use of the accessway to provide this to the Council. A legal assessment of any additional information will then take place to ensure that all information has been taken into account when considering these complex legal issues.”

The call for evidence will remain open for two months, up until the 12 June.

Residents can submit evidence to GrangeLandfill@rotherham.gov.uk or alternatively write to Riverside House at: FAO Sam Barstow, Riverside House, Main Street, Rotherham S60 1AE (hand delivered items are also accepted).
