Locals fight Permali permit bid over noise and smells

Councillor Rebecca Trimnell is speaking up for local residents concerned about the noise and smells coming from the Permali factory on Bristol Road.
The firm has applied to the city council for a permit allowing them to use more than 200 tonnes of solvents per year.
“Residents have already had to live with high level noise and abhorrent smells from the factory and now it appears this could be extended further if the permit is granted,” said Councillor Trimnell.
“I am supporting local residents in opposing the application and would like to see the company do all it can to mitigate against the current levels of odour and noise.”
