Dibden Lane and Willow Bank Road Planning applications
Updated: March 20th 2020
Some good news! Greenvolt withdrew their planning application for 41 houses off Dibden Lane before it went to to Tewkesbury Borough Council's Planning Committee. Cala Homes application was rejected by Tewkesbury Borough Planning Committee - Cala Homes applied for 28 houses off Willow Bank Road , only one vote at Committee being cast in favour. A representative from the Parish Council and a representative of residents both made short presentations to the Committee.
A special thanks to all villagers who sent in objections. There were over 100 objections to the Cala Homes proposal and over 90 for Greenvolt (with a shorter timescale ). The objections were summarised in the Planning Officer’s report for the Cala Homes application and referred to in the Parish Council submission and presentations. The Planning Officer report for Greenvolt also recommended rejection. We wait to see whether Cala will appeal, but if they do the Parish Council will join the Borough in robustly defending this rejection. There are no outstanding applications but we need to remain ready to respond.

Alderton Planning
CALA HOMES PROPOSED NEW DEVELOPMENT IN ALDERTON - YOUR VIEWS ARE IMPORTANT: You will have received an invitation from CALA Homes to a public consultation meeting about a potential new housing development in Alderton. There has been no prior consultation with the Parish Council about this but it is for a further 28 houses on land immediately south of the existing CALA development coming into the village from the garage.
Please attend the Cala Homes Community Consultation event on:Tuesday 25th June 2019 4.00pm – 7.30pm Gardeners Arms Pub, Beckford Road, Alderton, Tewkesbury, GL20 8NL |
There is no planning application at this stage but feedback from this event will go into the Planning process. It is hoped as many villagers as possible can attend and make their views known using the feedback forms at the event.
This proposal is NOT provided for in the Alderton Neighbourhood Plan, the emerging Tewkesbury Borough Plan or the County Joint Core Strategy plan. It is outside the village settlement boundary, on land within the Special Landscape Area and closes the historic gap between the village and the main road to Stow. |
Alderton Neighbourhood Plan Referendum
Alderton voted YES! with 98% in favour on turnout of 59.6%. This is a great result for local democracy and means that the Neighbourhood Plan will be used to help decide planning applications
