Application Number: 09/P/1021/VO Name: David Scarth Address: Chew Valley Trees Ltd Winford Road Chew Magna Bristol BS40 8HJ Tel: 01275 333752 Email: david@chewvalleytrees.co.uk Date and time of comment left: 03-08-2009 10:00 Comment Type: Support Proposal Comment: Bristol Airport Expansion We support the further development and enhancement at Bristol Airport. Bristol has always been a trading city and the airport is the modern expression of that. The economic benefits a modern airport gives to the city and all the surrounding counties could not be easily regained if lost. Employment directly and indirectly by the airportā??s operations supports many jobs in the immediate locality. We ourselves undertake the grounds maintenance around the terminal building, this regular contract is an important part of our income. We are based less than three miles from the airport and have a staff of 20 all of whom live locally. David Scarth Director Chew Valley Trees Ltd Winford Road Chew Magna Bristol
