Deputy Leader, Cllr Dan Thomas and Lead Member for Housing, Cllr Denise O’Callaghan have visited the award-winning Collaton Park development to check on progress.
It marks an important milestone in our commitment to deliver more high -quality sustainable housing for the community.
This exciting development will offer 125 new energy-efficient homes with a mix of social rent, lower cost and open market houses, as well as self-build plots and properties for the over 55’s.
Eighteen of the affordable homes will be available through Newton and Noss Community Land Trust, strengthening our work with communities to deliver more homes where needed most.
