Gail overlooking the Newton Park campus at Newton St Loe - where thousands of houses could be built if the government gets its way.News that Baker Associates have put in a planning application for over 9,000 new homes south of Bristol before the RSS has been ratified have worried local residents in the three areas of search in B&NES.
They are the south of Whitchurch, Newton St Loe and South Stoke. The Government Regional Spatial Strategy has been put on hold while there is a legal wrangle but developers are already in discussion about building new homes.
Council officers are hoping to consult residents in the autumn about proposed new areas for development. Residents are advised to look out for this or for any planning applications so that they can put forward objections or design suggestions. These might include energy efficiency measures, allotment provision, pay areas, community halls or landscape.
