    New settlement plans 'paused' after land withdrawn near Cattal

    Plans for a new settlement to the east of Knaresborough have been paused after a key piece of land was withdrawn from the proposal.

    Harrogate Borough Council said its submission of the proposed new settlement development plan document (DPD) for the Green Hammerton and Cattal area to the Secretary of State has had to be postponed.

    The decision has been made after the owner of a piece of land said it was no longer available.

    A spokesperson for HBC said:

    “We have been notified that an area of land previously available and included in the proposed new settlement boundary has been withdrawn and is no longer available for development.
    "As a result, submission of the proposed new settlement DPD to the Secretary of State for independent examination has been paused while options are considered.”


    The DPD for a new settlement has to be approved by the government before any development can take place.

    This does not affect a planning application already submitted by developer Caddick Group for up to 4,000 homes, as well as two primary schools, a GP surgery and shops.

    The development, known as Maltkiln, was lodged with Harrogate Borough Council but looks likely to be decided by the new North Yorkshire Council after it comes into effect from April 1.

    However, it can only be given approval if the principle of a new development in the area is accepted by the Secretary of State, via submission of the new settlement DPD.
