Beeching Close – Public Meeting

October 29, 2008

There will be a public meeting on Monday 3rd November at 7.30 in the Village Hall to discuss the planning application to build a house next to the Station House in Beeching Close with an access road that drops down from Station Road.

On Monday the committee that makes the final decision on whether planning applications should be accepted or not voted 8-7 in favour of constructing just the access and then deciding whether it would be able to carry the construction traffic before making a decision on whether the house can be built.

To create this access 5 trees will have to be cut down which will adversely affect the attractive tree canopy over Station Road as you enter and leave the village, as well as involving considerable work on the roadside verge and the road itself.

We want to hear your views. If you can’t get to the meeting and have an opinion you want to express, please send me an email to the Parish Council at council@uptonvillage.co.uk.

You may find the following PDF documents relating to the application on the Vale Planning site informative:

  • Design & Access Statement
  • Site location plan
  • Arboriculturalist report
  • Proposed site plan
  • Proposed site layout
