North Yorkshire Council has submitted its Maltkiln development plan to the government’s Planning Inspectorate ahead of an examination.
The potential 4,000-home town and two primary schools would be constructed near the villages of Cattal, Whixley, Green Hammerton and Kirk Hammerton. The council says the draft document “sets a clear and ambitious thirty-year vision” for Maltkiln. It includes details of the site’s boundaries, how the scheme will be developed alongside local transport infrastructure and how homes will be built to combat the effects of climate change.
Coun Arnold Warkenen said he hopes residents will raise any concerns they might have regarding the proposals during the public examination. All information regarding the examination, including dates for any hearing sessions will be published on North Yorkshire Council’s website at a later date. Coun Warneken said: “I still have serious concerns about its deliverability and viability, relying including land that is not available and thus using CPOs is fundamentally wrong.
