On 23 September 2011, AVDC’s Strategic Planning Committee was unanimous in its decision to grant detailed planning permission for the UK’s first zero-carbon dairy and the business park.
Peter Lauritzen, CEO of Arla Foods UK plc, said: "The granting of planning permission means we can bring a state-of-the-art dairy to Aylesbury, creating 700 new jobs, a £20 million annual wages bill and delivering a £150 million private-sector led investment."
"Arla’s aim is to be a good long-term neighbour and we have therefore incorporated a multi million pound package of mitigation measures to effectively reduce or remove the effect of bringing the dairy to this site. We are also proposing to create a community liaison group so we can continue to work closely with local councillors and residents."
