Neighbours have voiced concerns about the impact of new houses set to be built in a 'super' Nottinghamshire village. The final step towards 11 new homes being constructed at land off Nottingham Road in Burton Joyce could be taken by Gedling Borough Council's planning committee on October 12, where councillors will decide whether to approve the developer's s106 funding contributions to the area.
In August 2021 an outline application was approved, with the homes to be accessed via Mill Field Close. After a reserved matters application was approved subject to a s106 agreement the scale of the homes has been amended, with them now proposed to range from two bedroom dwellings to five bedroom dwellings.
The approved development would also require the removal of 32 trees or tree groups for removal from the land owned by Chevin Homes. Local residents were positive about the principle of more homes being built, but expressed concerns about infrastructure strains affecting the desirable village.
