\n Cotswold Ecohomes wants to build 12 new homes at Oaksey Park Golf & Leisure, a nine-hole golf course in the Cotswold Water Park.\n<\/p>\n
\n Planning permission for 12 holiday lodges was granted in 2005 – the fourth phase in the creation of a number of such lodges at the site. But they were never built.\n<\/p>\n
\n Earlier this year, the developer approached Wiltshire Council with plans to build houses for the over-55s.\n<\/p>\n
\n But following an objection by Oaksey Parish Council, who said that what the village needed was for families, not retirees, the application was revised.\n<\/p>\n
\n New plans, to be discussed by members of the Northern Area Planning Committee next Wednesday (December 3), would see 12 two-storey three-bed houses built in Cotswold stone.\n<\/p>\n
\n As the number of proposed houses totals more than five, an allocation of affordable houses would have been expected. However, all will be sold at market value, with the developer making a contribution to Wiltshire Council of nearly \u00a3350,000 to provide affordable housing elsewhere.\n<\/p>\n
\n The council’s own planning department is recommending to councillors that they grant planning permission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cotswold Ecohomes wants to build 12 new homes at Oaksey Park Golf & Leisure, a nine-hole golf course…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":296708,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[5904,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-296707","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golf","8":"tag-golf","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296707","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=296707"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296707\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/296708"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=296707"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=296707"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=296707"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
