An update from the Chair of Great Staughton Parish Council on the Affordable Housing Project
The Planning process is now underway. The application reference is 20/01915/FUL. Full details of the planning application can be found through the Staughton Parish Council website http://greatstaughtonpc.org.uk/ and through the HDC planning portal. https://publicaccess.huntingdonshire.gov.uk/online-applications/search.do
The planning process can take up to 3 months and so is unlikely to be complete before Christmas, but it could be completed earlier if all goes well.
The process of tendering the build contracts has commenced. The CLT are taking part in this process and will endeavour to ensure any disruption from building is kept to a minimum by adding criteria to the tender. Any thoughts, comments residents may wish to make please let me know. The start on site is expected to occur in March 2021 with the enabling works. There will be some site exploration works prior to this date.
Any queries please contact me
