Appeal Against Refusal of Planning Application Relating to Linford Lakes

An appeal has been lodged against Refusal of Planning Application :

This means that a Planning Inspector will now convene a hearing to decide if Milton Keynes Councils decision should stand or if planning permission must be granted.

Note the previous application also went to an appeal and the Inspector ruled in favour of MKCs decision to refuse.

(1) Full application for the change of use of 68.65ha of agricultural land to a linear park and a new access road to the Linford Lakes Study Centre with associated works including the stopping up of the public road in Stanton Low and demolition of the Marle Inn; and (2) Outline application (matter of access to be considered, with matters of layout, scale, appearance and landscaping reserved) for up to 277 extra care apartments (Use Class C2); a care home providing up to 70 bedrooms (Use Class C2); up to 41 retirement bungalows (Use Class C3) and up to 196 homes (Use Class C3) with communal amenity space and other associated works.
