Outline planning for the land to the south of West St has now been lodged with Maldon District Council and can be found here
Please ensure you leave your comments on the MDC website if you are registered.
We will be looking closely at the application over the next few days and will guide you through how to make comments if you need help.
According to Obsidian, the land promoter acting on behalf of the land owner, 147 residents replied to their questionnaire that was sent to all villagers earlier in the year and a further 30 left comments on their website. If you were one of those that returned the form or left a comment on the Obsidian website please ensure that you comment on the MDC website too, as those comments sent to Obsidian are not taken into account by MDC when reviewing the planning application.
Details of the comments made to Obsidian regarding the planned development south of West St. can be found in the Statement of Community Involvement document on the MDC website or here
It does seem from the replies that there is little support for this proposed development. However, as we know from the Gladman proposal, the more comments made the more chance we have of saving our village from over development.
Please remember to make your comments before Tuesday 1st August 2023.
