Yorkshire Water sister firm moves forwards with plan or 230 new homes in Calderdale
Yorkshire Water’s sister company has received the go-ahead on a plan to build up to 230 new homes in Calderdale.
Keyland Developments Ltd, the property trading arm of Kelda Group and sister company to Yorkshire Water, has secured outline planning consent from Calderdale Council for a new residential development of up to 230 new homes located on a site to the south of Saddleworth Road in Greetland.
The Ellistones Gate scheme will bring a 10 hectare extension to existing housing in Greetland.
Joe Boothman, land and development manager at Keyland Developments Ltd, said: “The committee resolution to approve the application has been the result of a great deal of technical work undertaken by the wider consultant team and working closely with Calderdale Council.
"It will bring about a scheme that not only assists the Council with housing delivery, but will also include the provision of affordable housing, new blue and green infrastructure and public open space.”
The site is allocated for housing in Calderdale Council’s adopted Local Plan.
