Previous plans for five-bed homes have been scrapped.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The site&#8217;s entrance and exit would be just to the west of Humberston Country Club, which would involve removing 34 of the club&#8217;s car parking spaces.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The course officially closed when Bannatyne, which runs the club and rented out the course, said it was no longer viable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">At a Humberston Village Council meeting in January, members of the golf club opposed the plans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/lnp\/ldrs\" class=\"ssrcss-1e0jzsh-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Local Democracy Reporting Service<\/a>, during the pre-application consultation, 44 out of 46 responses were objections. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Loss of the golf course and public amenity were among the concerns listed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">However, the applicant argued the linear park, play areas and open space would create &#8220;a far wider health and well-being benefit than the former golf course site, which was a private facility for a limited number of individuals&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Vistry said in a planning document: &#8220;The development will deliver much-needed new homes within a highly accessible location, while enhancing the local environment and contributing positively to the character, functionality and long-term resilience of the area.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The site is currently in North East Lincolnshire Council&#8217;s Local Plan as allocated for possible future housing.
