It has been a while since our last posting and it has been a frustrating time with the 8 week planning application now dragging on to its 9th month! PCLT are making progress, albeit slowly, with hundreds of hours and a not insignificant amount of funds invested.
It has been some time since we have had anything to report. The planning process has taken far, far longer than we had hoped and is, we believe, is drawing to a conclusion. The volunteers at the CLT have invested hundreds of hours over several years to get to this point with the Police House and Station site. Now we are asking you, the members, to participate by helping us to raise the funds for the purchase and initial costs.
The planning application for 8 Market Place, Pewsey is still progressing, albeit much slower than we would wish, due to a number of variables out of the control of the CLT, that are being addressed. At the time of writing, we are hopeful of resolution by June.
The planning application for 8 Market Place, Pewsey is well underway and secured the support of Pewsey PC at the planning meeting on March 27th. We would like to thank Pewsey PC for their continued support of this project through its various phases. We have had some communications during the process and hope for a positive outcome after so much effort.
Pewsey CLT is pleased to announce that, after many months and much hard work, the drawings and all the associated CRtBO documents have been redrafted for a standard planning application for 8 Market Place. These were submitted to Wiltshire Council planning on 12th February 2024. This was the only route left available to PCLT to move this project forward without further lengthy delays. You can comment on the plans at here:
Canvassers for all political parties have found the message on the doorsteps loud and clear: there is a chronic shortage of homes to rent at prices that people can afford. Not enough social rented houses are being built and housing association houses have the right to buy.
After several years and the last six months of detailed community engagement events and design work, proposals for the delivery of affordable rental housing on the site of the former police station in Pewsey are nearly complete. We will be placing documentation for everyone to review and comment on in Pewsey Library during June/July 2023 and we hope that as many readers as possible will find the opportunity to read through and write comments. All of the documents will also be available on this website where possible.
