Huntingdonshire District Council are waiting to hear your views on the sites submitted through the call for sites. 

As previously reported there are 7 sites identified so far for Yaxley –

Yaxley 1 – Eagle Business Park Phase 3
Yaxley 2 – Land South West of Yaxley and East of A1 (M) near Norman Cross
Yaxley 3 – Land South of Main Street
Yaxley 4 – Folly Farm, London Road
Yaxley 5 – Land off the Wykes, accessed from West End
Yaxley 6 – Land to the rear of St Peter’s Church

Yaxley 7 – Land South of 25 West End

It should be stressed that HDC have undertaken assessments on all of the sites above and on some have concluded that the site is inappropriate for development. But they still need to hear from YOU – do you agree with them, have they missed anything, what would make the sites more suitable, how appropriate are they ? This is YOUR chance to have YOUR SAY.

Comments from local residents will have some influence on how each proposal proceeds through HDCs approval process to be included in the final updated Local Plan. Therefore if you feel strongly about any proposals your comments are important to share with HDC before the deadline of 27 November.

 

To help explain all the information and how best to make comments on each proposal Huntingdonshire District Council Planners will be at Queens Park Hall, Yaxley on 8th October from 2pm to 8pm when you will be able to view the Local Plan documents, ask questions and share your thoughts in person.
The Parish Council will be meeting to discuss the sites for Yaxley on 12th November at 7.00pm – please keep following our Facebook page for updates.
