Bishop's Cleeve - Development

Development

In 2010, the development of 450 houses began at Homelands farm, with the developers, Comparo, wanting to build an extra 550 houses on top of this. Although this was rejected by Tewkesbury Borough Council in 2007, the developers have since launched an appeal to the Secretary of State for communities and local government about the decision, which has triggered a full planning inquiry. The main concerns about this development is the strain on the local infrastructure it will create, and the fact that the area is a flooding 'hotspot'.

But in 2012, the secretary of state declared the 'Cleevelands' to be built, which will start the construction of 550 dwellings in the North West of Bishops Cleeve.Once the development goes ahead Bishops Cleeve will soon become a small town but bigger than Tewekesbury.

Famous quotes containing the word development:

    I hope I may claim in the present work to have made it probable that the laws of arithmetic are analytic judgments and consequently a priori. Arithmetic thus becomes simply a development of logic, and every proposition of arithmetic a law of logic, albeit a derivative one. To apply arithmetic in the physical sciences is to bring logic to bear on observed facts; calculation becomes deduction.
    Gottlob Frege (1848–1925)

    A defective voice will always preclude an artist from achieving the complete development of his art, however intelligent he may be.... The voice is an instrument which the artist must learn to use with suppleness and sureness, as if it were a limb.
    Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)

    Sleep hath its own world,
    And a wide realm of wild reality.
    And dreams in their development have breath,
    And tears, and tortures, and the touch of joy.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
