Plans for affordable housing development in Ruabon granted
Plans to build more than 40 new affordable homes in Wrexham have been given the go ahead.
An application for the redevelopment of the site at Wynnstay Technology Park in Ruabon was approved by planning committee members this week.
The 1.72 hectare site already had outline planning permission for a mixed use development made up of light industrial units, retail unit and 35 residential properties.
However as part of the plans put forward by Cartrefi G.O, it had been proposed that 43 affordable homes and a new access point to the site are developed on the “redundant” land.
Councillors Mark Pritchard and Dana Davies in the Zoom meeting. A ROW has broken out between two political rivals as senior councillors in Wrexham backed a council tax rise of almost seven per cent. Members of Wrexham Council’s ruling independent/Conservative executive board held a virtual meeting yesterday (Tuesday, 26 January) to discuss the local authority’s budget for the upcoming financial year. For the second year in a row, it includes an increase of 6.95 per cent for ratepayers, which amounts to an extra £85 per year for an average band D property. Council leader Mark Pritchard said the changes were being proposed in light of it receiving the second lowest increase in funding from the Welsh Government out of the 22 authorities in Wales.
