A planning deadline has been extended so people in a coastal village have more time to air their views on a controversial 665 homes bid.
The bid has led to strong opposition from Caister Parish Council and from residents, with concerns over traffic safety, loss of hedgerows and trees and the impact on local infrastructure being voiced.
Caister Parish Council will be setting up sealed ballot boxes in the village to help residents submit their objections or support for the scheme.
The scheme includes land for a primary school and for space for what is called a ‘local centre’ for future opportunities for retail and convenience and business and health use.
Persimmon say the homes will be for younger people and will help boost the local economy.
