Councillors are being asked to refuse planning permission for 195 new homes in Tranent after being told there is no more room in the town's cemetery for new residents.
Developers Mactaggart and Mickel Homes want to build the housing on land at Windygoul on the town's Elphinstone Road along with business units, a shop, restaurant and bar.
However a meeting of East Lothian Council's planning committee this week will be asked by officers to reject the plans.
