Why does Stockton need new homes?

Providing new homes is important not only locally but nationally. It gives people a place to live for themselves and their families. It also helps support the local economy and can provide new infrastructure and open spaces for the local community. This specific site is safeguarded within the Neighbourhood Plan which means it can be brought forward for development. This will help the delivery of new homes to achieve the five-year supply of housing that the Council is required to have.

What is an outline planning application?

An outline planning application agrees the principle of development on a site. That’s why you may not see the level of detail in the plans you would expect. If an outline planning application is granted planning permission, this must be followed by a reserved matters planning application, which must also receive its own planning permission. This will contain cover the detailed aspect of the design of the new homes and final layout.
