DetailIt isn't clear the decision went to a public committee. Detailed plans are still to come.

It's approved. Here's what you can still do

  • Quote the reference: OP/2025/2
  • Good planning grounds include: impact on the Green Belt or countryside, energy use and carbon, water supply, noise, traffic, wildlife and heritage. Developers' promises are not guarantees: ask for them to be made binding.
