A decision on hugely contentious plans to build more than two thousand homes in the Hyde countryside has been delayed until 2023.
Proposals for the Godley Green garden village were due to go before councillors just days before Christmas, at a planning meeting scheduled for December 21. The planning application for up to 2,150 homes on land to the north of Mottram Old Road was submitted by Tameside council in October last year.
However the council has now confirmed that the planning committee will not be voting on the application – which has gathered more than 3,800 objections – until a date in the coming year.
