A local poll, organised by the Borough Council of King's Lynn & West Norfolk, will take place later this month.
The poll is an all-postal ballot, the papers for which will be delivered from 11 February 2011. Ballot papers will be sent to all eligible electors, registered as at 4 January 2011.
The question for the poll is:
'Do you support the construction of a Mass Burn Municipal Waste Incinerator on the Willows Business Park, Saddlebow, King's Lynn?'
Ballot papers must be returned to the Returning Officer by 28 February 2011. The result of the poll will be available on 1 March 2011.
The decision to organise the poll was taken on 25 November 2010, by Full Council, to ascertain the views of borough residents on the proposal to build an incinerator in West Norfolk. The results of the poll will be made available to Norfolk County Council, the responsible planning authority for the proposal.
