A controversial plan to build thousands of homes on greenbelt in a Nottinghamshire town has been formally scrapped
. A plan to build 3,000 homes on green belt land at Whyburn Farm in Hucknall as part of Ashfield District Council's Draft Local Plan has now been officially removed after almost a year of public backlash.
Campaigners had mobilised in large numbers to oppose and petition the plan, calling on their council to "listen to the people" and take the area out of the Draft Local Plan. Whyburn Farm has now been formally withdrawn from the plan that will be sent in to the Government, with cabinet members on Tuesday, September 27 approving plans to remove the thousands of planned homes, meaning the authority will not meet its housing target set by Government.
But when it was first announced that Whyburn Farm would be removed, Ashfield District Council Leader Jason Zadrozny said: "It's a process of negotiation. The next stage is a consultation to the Government where the public feedback goes directly to the Secretary of State.
