Two planning applications covering the MU1 site - one for the employment site at the top end of the development and one for the residential site and new school covering most of the remainder of the site, have been made.
You can submit comments regarding the planning applications covering the MU1 site between Gawber, Pogmoor, Higham, Barugh Green, Claycliffe and Redbrook.
We are aware that the applications contain a number of supporting documents and plans. Officers are working with the applicant to explore what can be done to make the applications easier for residents to interpret. This may result in some further public consultation; however, at the moment, we would suggest people focus on looking at the following key documents:
- Planning Statement
- Environmental Statement Non-Technical Summary
- Landscape Masterplans
- Layout Plans
- Boundary Sections
- Site Sections
From these, you should then be able to identify which other documents may be of interest to you – for example, the elevations and plans of the proposed house types near your property.
