Good news from the 10th of December council meeting, the Asker lane fields were priority 1 for building on as recommended by the planning office. This was shot down in flames by the councilors and downgraded to priority 4 - Not suitable for development on multiple counts!
The developers can still appeal, but this decision is unlikely to be overturned as the vote was one off unanimous!
In the mean time the application for the Asker Lane fields to become a protected open space are still in progress, so fingers crossed!
This Blog is here to provide information to local residents of Matlock about the recent announcement by the Matlock District Council that it is exploring the option to develop 270 new houses on green field sites around Matlock. The largest site is off Asker Lane / Chesterfield Road and has the potential to have 179 homes. Please feel free to comment, we want to hear from you!
