Land Consultation at Birch Road, Landkey
Thank you for visiting the consultation website for our reserved matters planning application to create 150 new homes on land off Birch Road in Landkey.
Outline planning permission for up to 150 new homes was granted by North Devon Council in April 2023. This established the principles of development and infrastructure provisions that any future planning application needs to consider.
The next stage is for us to create and submit detailed designs and layouts for the new homes, as well as detailed plans for highways, drainage and green infrastructure, known as a ‘reserved matters’ planning application. The final areas left to be approved relate to landscape, layout, scale and appearance. All these areas are now being considered as part of our reserved matters planning application. We are seeking your constructive feedback that we can incorporate into our final scheme.
On this webpage you can find out more about our plans, complete our survey, view our exhibition boards presented at the public exhibition session, and provide your feedback (link at the bottom of the page).
We are keen to hear your views by Sunday 6th October 2024 to help us shape our final plans.
