In the Scarborough authority area
UPDATE:
Local Residents report that this application has been recommended for approval by SBC The same developer obtained planning permission in a nearby village with a promised quote of 25% affordable only to be... yes you've already guessed ... reduced to 5% affordable withn weeks of the planning being approved
An application was lodged this week to build 241 dwellings with access, public open space and strategic landscaping on land to the north of Beacon Road Seamer. To view details of the application on Scarborough Borough Council's website please click on the following link and enter 17/00452/FL in the Search Box. The link is: http://planning.scarborough.gov.uk/online-applications/
The Seamer Parish Council will meet at 7 pm on the 11th of April to discuss this. CPRE have been contacted by local residents asking for help with their objection to this large application. We wrote to Scarborogh Borough Council asking for an extension to comment due to work load across the county. This was not acceptable to the council therefore, we will be working round the clock AGAIN to read through the large number of files along with the planning inspectors comments on the SBC local plan.
To the local residents who contacted CPRENY - we are working to support you and will meet the deadline!
Litter's no joke
Saturday 1 April, Aireville Swimming Pool Carpark 10.00 am CPRENY volunteers will do their bit and litter pick again. Join us. Tea and Buns served afterwards to all volunteers
Don't worry, we all know the public think we are on community service so this year, we have a banner to identify that we're from the Campaign to Protect Rural England! We walk the walk and talk it!
Interesting one.. with regard to Craven District Council
This impacts on other local authorities:
Craven again ...sadly
Judge quashes council's small sites policy but sympathises over 'constant changes' in national policy
Chair of CPRENY meets HRH The Prince of Wales
In 2013 CPRE North Yorkshire awarded a Sustainable Development Mark to the Courtyard at Settle because, quite simply the development fullfills the three criteria of sustainability and is sympathetic development.
On March 22 HRH Prince Charles visited the Courtyard. Others attending were the Lord Lieutenant of North Yorkshire Mr Barry Dodd CBE and John Furness the High Sheriff of the County.
Chair, Jules Marley said, it was an honour to meet His Royal Highness.
Craven District Local Plan - what local plan?
Six years and no plan. CPRE volunteers in the Craven District have tried. Robert Hesletine (Councillor) states in the article that developers are 'out of control' in the Craven area
