Plan to expand recycling facility among applications to Bexley Council
The proposal, by Mr L Bicaku, involves extending the facility at Century Wharf Industrial Estate, Crayford Creek Road, Crayford.
It includes both upward and outward extensions to the existing building.
According to the public notice, the aim is to improve efficiency and quality at the site, as well as enable the facility to process an additional 70,000 tonnes per year of mixed recyclables.
The application, reference 25/00884/FULM, can be viewed on the council's planning portal.
Public comments must be submitted by June 4.
In a separate application, Mr R Manak has requested permission to alter the footprint and elevations of a previously approved development at Aysgarth, Cross Lane, Bexley.
The site falls within the Parkhurst Conservation Area and the application is being made under Section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
The original permission, reference 24/01696/FUL, was for the erection of two single-storey side extensions following the demolition of an existing garage and conservatory, and the incorporation of dormer windows to the northwest and southwest roof slopes.
The current application, reference 25/00910/FUL, seeks to vary condition 2 (approved drawings) of the original permission.
The full details of both applications can be viewed online at: bexley.gov.uk/services/planning-and-building-control/view-and-comment-planning-applications/viewing-planning-applications
Written responses for the Aysgarth application must be submitted by June 5 and addressed to Development Management, Civic Offices, 2 Watling Street, Bexleyheath, Kent, DA6 7AT.
The council has advised that, under the Local Government (Access to Information) Act 1995, any response will be made available for public inspection.
It has also noted that, as the Aysgarth application relates to a domestic dwelling, if the application is refused and the applicant appeals under the Householder Appeal Service, only observations made on this application will be passed to the Planning Inspectorate.
There will be no further opportunity to make representations at the appeal stage.
Richard Turek, head of development management at Bexley Council, signed both public notices.
The notices were published on May 14.
Members of the public can view and comment on both applications via the council's planning portal.
Further details on how to submit comments are available on the council's website.

Village of Dolton, Illinois votes to buy Pope Leo XIV's childhood home
What was once an average home in Chicago's south suburbs has now received national attention for being the childhood home of Pope Leo XIV. The Dolton Village Board voted unanimously Tuesday night to take control of the house at 212 E. 142nd Pl. Village leaders called the purchase a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The house is small and so is the street on which it's located, but there has been a lot of traffic headed its way lately. That is exactly what Dolton village leaders want. At a special village board meeting Tuesday night, most people agreed with Dolton Mayor Jason House on seizing the opportunity to buy the home before investors do so. But some residents had reservations. "We need to be mindful of addressing the issues the city has while trying to address the debts and lawsuits," said Dolton resident Ryan Reese. "I'm not sure this is the first priority." "As a practicing Catholic I see no reason why you want to buy that house," said Dolton resident Annette Mauro. "The house inside does not look anything like when Father Prevost lived there." Another longtime resident, Mary Avent, said the current lack of a police chief and fire chief in Dolton is more important. "Purchasing the pope's house is admirable," Avent said, "but with the state we're in right now, I guess my concern is, do we have the money?" Before finalizing the decision, Mayor House addressed the concerns, and ensured that the purchase would bring much-needed state and congressional funding to Dolton. "Some are talking about the repair of our streets and current infrastructure,' House said. "We are fully committed and will be doing both." The mayor agreed with some trustees who compared Pope Leo XIV's childhood home to the homes of other popes, and how historical acknowledgement of those homes has only benefited communities. "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," said House. "We can either seize this moment and move it forward, or we can let that moment go to an investor. I would like our community to get the benefits of this opportunity." The village attorney earlier said Dolton is planning to provide police protection at the house on a 24/7 basis, and to turn the entire block on which the house sits into a historical site. There is already a plan to purchase other properties on 142nd Place. On Tuesday ahead of the vote, contractors were out all day fixing the house's 30-year-old roof and replacing it with a new one. The new roof was donated by a roofing company in the area. Meanwhile, there continued to be a steady stream of visitors stopping by to pray. "I really would like to see the community have more jobs so people can have more income," said neighbor Donna Sanga David. "I think that's part of the problem in our community is, you know, the poverty." It was not clear late Tuesday how much the village would be paying for the house. Before all this, it was listed for just under $200,000, and the current auction price has a reserve of $250,000. The village estimates the sale will close within the next two weeks.

Plan your detours! 10 significant road projects in the South Bend area this summer
Road construction kicks into high gear in the summer time as local government undertakes street projects to make repairs and improve overall road safety. The Tribune compiled a list of significant road projects — some lasting months —determined by the size, length and cost of the project. These projects don't include standard street pavings, including 12 in Mishawaka and over 90 in South Bend, that typically take a week or less. Here's what to know about summer road projects in the St. Joseph County area. ● Mishawaka Avenue Streetscape Project When: Now to end of September Cost: $3.2 million In this two-phrase project, new curbs and sidewalks, new water main and storm sewers, new lighting, landscaping and street resurfacing will be coming to Mishawaka Avenue between Longfellow and Emerson avenues. Phase one — expected to end in early August — focuses on the south side of Mishawaka Avenue while phase two — expected to end in early August — focuses on north Mishawaka Avenue. During construction, Mishawaka Avenue will be reduced to one westbound lane with cross streets and the eastbound Mishawaka Avenue ramp from Eddy Street/State Road 23 closed. Eastbound traffic will be detoured to Sample Street to Lincoln Way East to Twyckenham Drive. ● Ewing Avenue When: Now to end of July Cost: $1.3 million In phase one, Ewing Avenue from Gertrude Street to Kemble Avenue will be closed through early June to install a new 10-foot multipurpose path and curbs on the south side of Ewing Avenue, raised intersections and pedestrian safety bumpouts at the Walker Field shelter house and at Webster and Walnut streets, and a new pedestrian and bicycle entrance to Rum Village Park. Motorists are advised to take Dubail and Prairie avenues as detours. In phase two, projected to be complete by the end of July, a new staircase and ramp connection to Rum Village Park will be installed. The city hopes construction improvements to Ewing Avenue will improve safety and to serve as a connector between Walker Field and Rum Village Park. ● Ireland Road and Ironwood Drive intersection When: Now to early July Cost: $1.8 million The construction, divided into six phases, includes full reconstruction of the pavement, curb realignment and upgraded traffic signals. The project, which is entering its fifth phase, will work on the southeast corner of the intersection. Each phase is expected to take 21 days with weather permitting. The city announces details of each phase as it begins. During phase five of construction, northbound traffic on Ironwood Drive will not be able to turn right onto Ireland Road. Rather, a detour will direct traffic north on Ironwood Drive, east on Lincoln Way East, then south on Church Street to reconnect with Ireland Road. ● Cedar Street bridge closures When: Now to early July Cost: $7.9 million The Cedar Street bridge refurbishments are part of phase one of the riverwalk expansion by connecting the north and south sides of the riverwalk. Construction includes new decking, a widened multi-use pathway, constructing a pathway under the bridge with stair access from Edgewater Drive, a new connection to Marvin's Garden, upgraded lighting and railing, a flashing pedestrian crossing at Cedar Street and St. Joseph County bridge maintenance. In phase two, the bridge will close April 1 and reopen in September 2025. Traffic is directed to the Main Street bridge using Lincolnway East and Mishawaka Avenue. ● Cleveland and Beech roads roundabout When: June 9 to October Cost: $3,491,555, with 80% paid for by the federal government and 20% locally In the relocation of NIPSCO, construction crews will construct a roundabout, which will close the intersection for a few months. Motorists should expect delays along Cleveland Road, between Buckeye Road and Ash Road, and along with Beech Road, from the south end of the bridge over the Toll Road to 500 to 700 feet south of Cleveland Road. ● Rehabilitation of Mayflower Road bridge When: Now to end of 2025, mid-2026 Cost: Rail line bridge — $5,278,000, with 80% paid for by the federal government and 20% locally; Ardmore Trail bridge — $2,224,000 Mayflower Road, from Fillmore Road to Edison Road, is closed due the rehabilitation of two bridges being built simultaneously, The Tribune's reporting partners at WNDU-TV said. One bridge rehabilitation is over the South Shore Line — ran by the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District — and Norfolk Southern railroad line and will be completed by the end of 2025. A second bridge rehabilitation is over Ardmore Trail and is projected to be completed by mid-2026. Mayflower Road is closed to traffic until both bridges are completed. ● Main Street Bridge and Indiana Toll Road Preservation Project When: Now to October Cost: $2.38 million In phase one of a two-phase project, the northbound lanes of Main Street are closed between Indian Ridge Boulevard and University Drive over the Indiana Toll Road as the Main Street bridge undergoes preventative maintenance. For a detour, Grape Road can be accessed at University Drive or Douglas Road for north and south travel. When the northbound lanes reopen sometime in July, the southbound lanes will close until the project is completed in mid-October. ● Edison Road gravity sewer and road replacement When: June 2 to mid-2026 Cost: $8 million Edison Road, from Smilax Road to Larrison Drive, will be closed from June 2 to the end of 2025. In an effort to provide utilities to the Indiana Enterprise Center area — east of New Carlisle and west of South Bend — the project will provide municipal utilities water and sewer as well as private utilities American Electric Power gas and fiber. While a sewer is being installed, the road will be widened to add a center turn lane from Larrison Drive to Smilax Road. Drivers can utilize Walnut Road between U.S. 20 and Edison Road for detour. The Indiana Department of Transportation will is continuing expansion and restructuring projects on roads it maintains. ● Indiana 2 and Larrison Boulevard resurfacing When: Now to mid-November Cost: $29.22 million The expansion of the intersection at Indiana 2 and Larrison Boulevard is continuing a repaving project to accommodate extra traffic impacted by the electric vehicle battery plant construction northwest of the intersection. The Tribune previously reported that Indiana 2's repaving and the intersection improvements will continue through late November, but won't result in any full closures of the highway with at least one lane open in each direction. The total cost includes the resurfacing from the U.S. 20/Indiana-2 dogbone interchange to the U.S. 20/31 bypass and a small structure replacement within that section. Improvements were also made to intersection of State Road 2 and Larrison Road. ● Indiana 23 pipe lining project When: June 9 to June 27 Cost: $474,848 The right lane of Indiana 23, between U.S. 20 and New Energy Drive, will be closed for a pipe lining project.
