The developers will need to apply for the next stage of planning permission. This involves the submission of further details known as ‘Reserved Matters’ which include:

  • layout
  • appearance
  • landscaping

The development is to be phased and could take up to 10 years in total to complete. The Reserved Matters applications for Phase 1 will need to be lodged before June 2025, and development will need to commence within 2 years of these if they are approved. These applications will involve a further round of public consultation and they will be discussed and determined at the Planning Committee in due course.

In addition, the developers will need to apply to discharge a number of conditions attached to their permission, including those relating to ecology and highways, prior to any development commencing.
