Stockton home plans uncertainty after new flood map
A new flood map has thrown plans for 265 homes into uncertainty.A five-day planning appeal was set to begin at the end of July into Keepmoat Homes and Banks Property's plan for a new estate at Bowesfield Lane and Cygnet Drive in Council rejected the scheme in September following dozens of objections from local inspector Philip Ware said the appeal hearing would now almost certainly be delayed as the applicants were seeking to change their plan in the light of a new flood map issued by the Environment Agency. 'Flood zone fears' Stockton Council said "putting the appeal on pause" for a redesign was not appropriate as the changes could alter parts of the plans which had lead to the Hall, representing the council, said the developers would not submit a revised plan until after September, adding: "The outcome of the revised flood risk mapping, implications for the scheme and therefore implications for the appeal are all uncertain."Councillors had said the "cramped" development would make residents' lives a misery, with the proposals receiving 45 objections over traffic and harm to and Ingleby Barwick resident Alison Ketch, 57, said there was no infrastructure, transport or parking services."It's a flood zone," she have maintained the site had very good public transport access and the plan would not impact on the nearby nature reserve. Redesign implications An updated scheme proposed the removal of eight plots, changes to seven and adding more green space. It also suggested postponing the appeal to later in the year, the Local Democracy Reporting Service Group, agent for the developers, said the site could not deliver affordable housing and an assessment was "necessary".Mr Ware said he would either set a new timetable or urge for the appeal to be "withdrawn, redesigned and resubmitted to the council".He said: "The unknown changes to the proposal could have implications for layout, flooding and viability – there are also a number of timescale uncertainties. "All this could result in a significantly different proposal." Follow BBC Tees on X, Facebook, Nextdoor and Instagram.

Council to keep new flats for homeless families
Leicester City Council looks set to keep an apartment block being built as part of a new 350-home development. The Waterside project, being delivered by the authority and Keepmoat Homes, is expected to be finished by the end of 2026, said the developer. So far, more than 200 homes - a mixture of houses and flats - have been built, as well as public open spaces on former factory sites along the banks of the Grand Union Canal. City mayor Sir Peter Soulsby is set to approve on Monday the retention of Lambert House, a block of eight two-bed flats, to be used as temporary accommodation for families who have declared themselves homeless. In a report, officers said the property would be a "significant" contribution to the council's target to deliver 1,500 "new council, social or supported living homes" by 2027. It added: "The city has experienced growing levels of homelessness and this, in turn, has led to a growing number of households in hotels and bed and breakfast accommodation." The Waterside project has also included the refurbishment of the bridge connecting Soar Lane to Soar Island, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service. Construction of 34 homes on Soar Island is expected to be completed by the end of the year according to Keepmoat, while 53 homes will be built in the Canal Frontage phase by the end of 2026. A "specialist care block" is also due to be developed by a third-party company with that work due to start later this year, Keepmoat said, and four commercial units are also planned. Keepmoat said the project would be an £80m-plus investment into the regeneration of the area. It added that the scheme would "help transform disused and neglected industrial buildings near Leicester's waterways". Soulsby said the area had "for a long time had immense potential for regeneration" and the project will "transform Waterside into a vibrant, attractive neighbourhood in which to live and work".
