Planning Application at West Felton

I am sending this message out again as the attachment (plan of the field to be developed) was too big for many people to open.  I am leaving it out this time but let me know if you would like to see the plan and I will send it separately.

Subject: West Felton - Tedsmore Estate Planning Application 13/01221/OUT

 

Dear Colleen,

 As you know we act as agents for the Tedsmore Estate. Several residents have asked me to clarify and summarise exactly what the current Tedsmore Estate development proposal comprises of as there have been a number of amendments and changes since the planning application was originally submitted.

May I ask you please to circulate this email to your West Felton residents list as I hope it answers many of the questions that have been raised.

I have summarised the scheme below and I also attach the latest layout plan for the scheme which has been reduced to 35 houses.

 ·        The revised scheme includes a new village shop as we were approached by Tom Norton, the current village shop owner, to incorporate a site for a new shop as you will appreciate the size of the current shop and the parking constraints are a problem for him. The site we have earmarked gives him room to expand to provide additional facilities such as a village coffee shop or bakery and plenty of safe off-road parking which will remove a significant road safety hazard at the crossroads in West Felton.

 ·        The revised design is low density with a lot of public open space – numbers have been reduced from 50 to 35 and the mix is 10 bungalows, 12 large houses, 7 family houses and 6 affordable/starter houses.

 ·        The playing field remains entirely unaffected by the development and is enhanced by the provision of a safe pedestrian route from the Holyhead Road to the playing field.

 ·        The Development Tax (CIL) payment that would be generated by the scheme is £369,680 of which £55,452 goes straight to the Parish Council to spend in the village and a further £266,170 would be targeted on Local Infrastructure. These figures have been confirmed by Shropshire Council and the confirmation is available should anyone wish to see it.

·      We have had a number of enquiries from local people asking if they can reserve one of the houses or bungalows should the scheme go ahead, and if anyone else would like to enquire then they are welcome to contact me.

 I hope this answers most queries but if anyone would like to contact me directly to discuss the scheme then they are welcome to do so – my contact details are at the bottom of this email.

 Many thanks.

Yours sincerely
