Controversial plans for the redevelopment of the Foxhill Estate – including the re-provision of up to 700 homes – have today been approved by Bath & North East Somerset Council’s Development Management Committee.
The Committee voted in favour of the outline planning application by the developer Curo Places Ltd, by a narrow vote of 5 to 4.
Cllr Sally Davis (Conservative, Farmborough) Chair of the Development Management Committee, said: “We have carefully considered all of the information in the officer report, and having conducted a site visit and listened closely to the representations at today’s meeting, the Committee voted to approve the Curo Places redevelopment of the Foxhill Estate, subject to the conditions and legal agreement stated in the officer report.”
As this is an outline planning application, subsequent reserved matters will need to be prepared and submitted which will deal with the detailed design of each phase of development as it comes forward.
