Redrow Homes received consent to build 191 homes on agricultural land, including 67 affordable units. However, the development faces issues due to limited access and community facilities.
Councillor Tim Barrett emphasized that the planning committee's hands were tied due to the existing local development plan, acknowledging that the site only features one access point.
The site is part of a larger plan that aims to deliver 825 homes and community amenities, but significant objections highlight the shortcomings of the local infrastructure.
Despite concerns about access and community resources, the development's elements, including affordable housing, are institutionalized within a flawed planning context that complicates negotiations.
