LAND NORTH OF RALEIGH DRIVE
An outline plan to build up to 60 dwellings on Green Belt land north of Raleigh Drive reached the Planning Committee in May last year and the Parish Council objected, saying that approval would set a very dangerous precedent for other tracts of Green Belt in the village and borough. Elmbridge Borough Council gave four reasons for refusing the application, the first being Green Belt contravention.
The developer has subsequently appealed and the Parish Council has been advised that the more people showing their opposition, the more likely the appeal is to be rejected. The date of appeal hearing will be publicised as soon as it is available. The appeal will be conducted via videoconferencing software, so residents will not be able to attend in person but can be present online.
