Plans for 146 homes that will extend the edge of Stowmarket towards Onehouse have been approved by a casting vote.
Proposals by Endurance Estates Land Promotion Ltd and Paul Barnard to
develop land off Union Road adjacent to existing development for 300 homes by Hopkins Homes were approved by Mid Suffolk District Council s development control committee on Wednesday morning.
Those
proposals were deferred from January after more information was requested on the landscape impacts and whether more homes could be designated affordable.

A decision on whether to approve 146 new homes in a rural Suffolk village has been pushed back after councillors said they were not convinced there were enough details on measures to prevent impacts on the landscape.
Mid Suffolk District Council s development control committee on Wednesday had been recommended to approve outline plans for 146 homes in Onehouse, near Stowmarket, put forward by Endurance Estates Land Promotion Ltd and Paul Barnard, but instead deferred a decision to a later date.
Councillors said more information was needed on mitigation measures to prevent harm to the landscape and rural character of the area, and pushed for an increase in the number of affordable homes as only 21% was proposed (31 homes) instead of the target 35%.
