Trelawny present proposals.

Trelawny are presenting their proposals for a new speedway track at a site near St Dennis to local residents. Officials from the JAG Tigers attended a parish council meeting in Fraddon on Tuesday evening and will make a similar presentation to the parish council at St Dennis next Tuesday evening, December 2.

A spokesman for Trelawny said: "We are attending the meetings as a gesture to local constituents as we want to give them an opportunity to sort out their queries. We had a healthy debate at Fraddon where the main discussion points were the issue of noise and the situation regarding the local tenant farmer."

"We explained in detail the effects of noise in the area as collated by acoustic experts. As far as the farm tenant's livelihood is concerned, it was explained that the majority of land would remain in grass and Trelawny are sure that compromise could be achieved."

No decisions were taken at the meeting but the JAG Tigers officials believe that local residents now have a better knowledge of the speedway club's proposals. Trelawny are on course to hand the old site at the Clay Country Moto Parc back to landowners Imerys by the end of the month.

"The site will be clear by Sunday," says the spokesman. "We would appreciate the help of any volunteers to assist in the final tidying up this Friday and Saturday, November 28 and 29."
