Permission for homes granted
PLANNING permission to build 24 residential dwellings including a block of four apartments has been granted.
Developers Chevin Housing Association Ltd appealed against a refused planning application made to East Riding of Yorkshire Council in March last year, and were granted permission on Wednesday March 6.
The development will see Northfield Avenue, in Driffield extended with the inclusion of associated private gardens and access parking.
P J Asquith, an inspector appointed by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, conducted a site visit in January.
In his appeal report he said: “The scheme would help to deliver much-needed affordable housing. It would not be premature or prejudicial having regard to emerging Local Plan policy or represent an intrusive incursion into the countryside that would unacceptably impact on the appearance and character of the area.”
A Section 106 agreement has been made to ensure the housing remains affordable and available to local people.
