A West Midlands town council has formally objected to plans for 900 homes in a 'garden village' development
Bridgnorth Town Council has submitted a formal objection to plans to build 900 homes on the outskirts of the town, as a consultation on the development comes to a close.
Tasley Garden Village is the name of a proposed new garden community on the southwestern edge of Bridgnorth, identified as an allocation in the most recent draft of Shropshire’s emerging new Local Plan to meet the growth and development needs of the town over the next fifteen years.
Bloor Homes, working in partnership with Taylor Wimpey, has submitted an outline planning application for the garden village to Shropshire Council.
The outline planning application sets out the principles for the delivery of up to 1,500 homes, specialist older people’s housing, a new two-form entry primary school and a range of community facilities set within a landscaped public open space.
The proposals were open to comments until Thursday (June 19) and ahead of the closing of the consultation had received 233 comments from members of the public, with 154 objecting.
