Development to the North of Hook Street

On the 17th July I received a pre application public consultation leaflet and letter from Pegasus Planning Group about a new planning application to build 91 homes on land to the north of Hook Street, near Lydiard Park.

This proposed development is outside the Local Plan for the Borough and it is therefore it would be quite inappropriate for the land to be developed.

The developers are going to have a public exhibition about the proposed development of the site to be held at Lydiard Academy next week but my view is that the development should not be permitted and I will be working to ensure that there is no further development in an area that is already lacking in community facilities and green spaces.

Details of the consultation can be found on the Swindon Advertiser website.
