5000 new houses - your chance to do something about it

We reported several weeks ago that a government panel is recommending 5000 new houses for Yate and area. This is equivalent to an extra two or three Chipping Sodburys on our doorstep.

If these new houses all go north of Yate, the town will reach all the way up to Wickwar. Or some could go south, near Wapley; west (the Common?) or east (the fringe of Sodbury)

And all without any local consultation as well.

Steve Webb and local councillors are forming an Action Group. Come to a PUBLIC MEETING at 7.30pm on Friday 29 February at Brimsham Green School.
