Residents of the Great Park estate are set to benefit from new allotments after a planning application received unanimous approval from city planners.
The development will be created on land at the corner of Kingston Park Road and Brunton Lane, west of the Great Park Estate. It will contain 23 full-size plots and 24 half-size plots as well as a community allotment for those who do not get their own plots.
The application would usually be determined under delegated powers, but it was sent to planning committee as the land is owned by the council. It forms part of a section 106 agreement by which the developers of the Great Park scheme agreed to fund 0.5 hectares of allotment land.
