Moor Lane housing development – position statement from Yorkshire Housing

Dear Menston Parish Council,
I’m writing on behalf of Yorkshire Housing to give you an update on the Menston
housing development.
Since Tolent went into administration in February we’ve had to make some necessary
changes to the development. This includes a redesign of the site, taking into account
new building regulations, as well as new technical approvals from Highways and
Yorkshire Water, ultimately leading to a revised planning application. However, this
has not changed the original plan of 113 homes. This work has nearly finished and
we’ll then be reviewing the information. We should then be in a position where we can
share more information with you by the end of the year.
We’re really sorry that we can’t give more detail at the moment, we know this is
frustrating for everyone, but ask that you please bear with us. We’ll keep you updated
on any further developments, but you need to speak to someone in the meantime,
please contact Development.Team@yorkshirehousing.co.uk.
  
Kind regards,
Anthony Askew
Head of Construction
