Comments to a developer's consultation are not the same as objecting to a planning application. If the scheme goes to the council, you'll need to comment again then.
Rowland Homes is preparing an outline planning application for residential development on the site at Mill Lane, Ness. The application will provide some detail on the proposals, and a detailed layout and house type designs will follow through a reserved matters application after outline permission is granted.
Also proposed: 45% affordable housing; vehicular and pedestrian access from Mill Lane; new green and blue infrastructure including retention of existing trees, hedgerows and rights of way; significant areas of public open space; onsite children's play facilities; potential SuDS attenuation ponds
Planning applications
No planning application yet. We check the council's register every morning and will link it here when one is submitted.
