Hastoe Housing Development - January 2018

Bucklesham Parish Council invite all Villagers to a Public Meeting to Discuss a

Proposed New Housing Development

At the Parish Council meeting of 7^th September 2017, the Parish Council was approached by Mr John Lefever of Hastoe Housing Association. Hastoe have been asked to develop a Rural Exception Scheme on a site that Suffolk Coastal District Council has identified, and agreed terms to obtain an option on, for a development of new affordable, environmentally sustainable houses in Bucklesham. 

The Parish Council has invited Mr Lefever to address a public meeting to explain what this means for our Parish. The Parish Council have been researching Hastoe, learning about Rural Exception Schemes and visiting similar developments. We have sought information and guidance from the Local Government Public Advisory Service and urge Villagers who would like to comment on this proposal to attend the Village meeting to find out more and give us their views.
