en.Wedoany.com Reported - Brooklyn Holdings plans to build 500 homes on a 27-acre site east of Clay Lane in Burtonwood, Warrington. The company previously consulted on plans for 250 homes nearby in 2021, and this proposal doubles the scale of the project.
A formal planning application has not yet been submitted, but the developer has submitted a screening opinion to Warrington Council. The document, written by environmental consultancy Appletons, requests that the council not require an Environmental Impact Assessment, a step typically taken before submitting a formal planning application.
The document outlines Brooklyn Holdings' development vision, including two- and three-story houses, a medical center, and areas for biodiversity enhancement. The site is currently designated as Green Belt, but the developer claims it meets the criteria for Grey Belt. Grey Belt is a land classification introduced by the Labour government, referring to sites that do not meet development standards, aimed at releasing more land for housing construction.
