Starting 2020 with a meeting of the North Somerset Council Strategic Planning, Development and Regeneration scrutiny panel.

Good debate on how to replace the unlamented JSP and to improve parking across North Somerset.

Was also good to have an update on how well officers have taken on board comments from the public around the town centre/Alexandra Parade plans.

Of particular interest was an update on development of land owned by NS and Homes England.

As it’s owned by the Council, the NS land has lots of potential for delivering a high level of affordable housing with exciting design and environmental performance.

It’s a shame that the Homes England sites in the centre of town are lagging behind – we need to keep up the pressure so that they deliver!
