What are your views on the plans?
More than 200 homes are set to be built in a Nottinghamshire area which has "very low" housing levels. A new 235-home estate will be built off Cauldwell Road, on the border of Sutton-in-Ashfield and Mansfield, if councillors on Ashfield District Council's planning committee follow a recommendation to approve the plans on March 22.
Architects working on behalf of the county council have said proposed housing would "directly and positively connect with these areas". A planning committee report concluded the level of development was "considered appropriate for the size of site", but some concerns and drawbacks of the proposals were highlighted by planning officers and other consultees.
Ashfield District Council's waste manager, who was also a consultee during the planning process, raised concerns that dead ends on the estate could cause crashes and mean bin lorries would have to reverse unnecessarily. Nottinghamshire County Council's highways team also had some safety worries, stating that reducing the speed limit on the eastern side of Cauldwell Road from 60mph to 30mph should be considered.
The draft agreement also outlines requests for funding towards nearby junction improvements at a figure of £1,498 per property and a £1,000 per dwelling obligation towards off-site open space/recreational facilities within Ashfield at a figure of £1,000 per property.
