Dear BW Supporter
OPEN MEETING WITH TAYLOR WIMPEY IN WETHERBY TOWN HALL
Planning permission was given by Leeds City Council (LCC) some 18 months ago for Taylor Wimpey to build up to 800 new homes on land north of Wetherby Racecourse, east of the A1 (M).
This huge housing scheme known as Swinnow Park, now has outline planning consent, subject to some 50 planning conditions in such matters as Layout, Scale, Appearance and Landscaping of the development. All will require planning approval from LCC Planning Department.
BW has been informed that representatives of Taylor Wimpey recently met with LCC officers to further discuss the planning conditions. As a result, further work is to be done by TW to take account of comments from LCC in respect of housing types, design and reducing carbon/saving energy.
To help update people about the current situation, representatives of TW will be holding a public exhibition between 4pm and 7pm on Thursday 10th February at Wetherby Town Hall. People will have the opportunity to see the various proposals, speak to the project team and provide feedback.
The sheer scale of this massive development will have serious implications for Wetherby, so to learn more, please come along and make your views known to TW.
In advance of the public exhibition, Better Wetherby will be meeting with representatives of TW as we continue our efforts to get the best possible outcome for Wetherby.
Information, documents and plans regarding the development can be viewed on the Leeds City Council Planning portal reference number 17/02594/OT (see our website for various links).
Please feel free to share this information as widely as possible; if you are not receiving information directly from BW, you are welcome to contact us at [email protected] and we will add your name to our email list.
