Hundreds of residents have objected to Patersons of Greenoakhill Ltd's plan to operate for another two to four years, but the firm believes there will be 'continued demand'.
A controversial bid to extend the life of an east end landfill site — that residents complain causes “horrendous” smells — has sparked calls for a public hearing.
People in Broomhouse, Mount Vernon, Baillieston and Swinton have complained about the odour and the impact of heavy goods vehicles on roads. Patersons’ plan to extend the operation of the “valuable” site by another two to four years, and expect “significant continued demand”. Patersons intends to increase the capacity of existing landfill waste containment cells to extend operation by “an additional two to four years” before “ceasing waste filling operations”.
However, the applicant expects there “will be significant continued demand from its customers, beyond December 2025. Appropriate measures for the safe disposal of waste should be retained until alternative facilities are fully operational.” It was lifted in February, allowing the company to accept all waste allowed under its permit. Patersons apologised for the smell in late 2022 and said site infrastructure had been upgraded.
