State of Play

27/5/2024

This map shows the sites that were allocated in the withdrawn Basildon Local Plan together with their original H-number designation and the number of houses being proposed at the time.

As a reminder, that plan was formulated and approved in 2016/18 but was withdrawn in 2022. The sites have therefore been known about for at least 8 years, probably longer. They were put forward by the landowners under an earlier 'call for sites' exercise and were selected and allocated in the Local Plan by Basildon Council.

The boxes around the map provide the current situation both in terms of planning applications, or known planning activity, and any change in the number of houses now being proposed or the number that have been approved.

Where planning applications exist (as of 27/5/24) these are the reference numbers;

London Road South 24/00004/OUT (houses & Lidl store)
London Road South 24/00479/FULL (retirement apartments)
Heath Close 23/01519/FULL (houses & sheltered accommodation)
Kennel Lane 20/01614/OUT (houses)
Maitland Lodge 21/01687/FULL (houses)
Outwood Common Road 22/00917/PIP (houses)
Potash Road 22/01353/OUT (houses & care home)

These can be viewed by searching for the reference number at this website;

Aims of BAG

To protect the Green Belt around Billericay and elsewhere in Basildon Borough from loss through excessive and unjustified development.

To prevent the character of our historic towns from being changed forever.

To ensure that any development that does take place is sustainable, with adequate infrastructure and prioritises local needs.

We support the need for a new Basildon Local Plan and the need for more housing. But it must be of the right number, the right type and in the right places to best help local people obtain a home of their own.

The Four Firsts Charter

This will be updated soon for the 2027 to 2042 version of the Local Plan but the Four Firsts will remain a core set of principles.
