New affordable homes approved in village to 'give young people a housing chance'

Bin collection concerns almost led to the plan being rejected.

Concerns over bin collections almost saw the proposals for land behind the former Kings Arms pub in Claverley rejected, after waste management officers said they would not be able to get a bin lorry into the estate.

The plans were put forward by Bridgnorth-based developer Oakwood Homes, which has just finished building six affordable homes which make up the first phase of the development. He said: “It is not an exaggeration to say that these properties have transformed these young families’ lives, and they are all delighted.Mr Beaman said the planning officers’ concerns over bin collections had been addressed in a number of ways, including three planned bin storage areas, the widening of the pavement at the site entrance to allow room for bins on collection day, and the inclusion of a compost area on-site for residents to reduce the number of bins put out.

Mr Beaman added: “We urge you to sport this application as it will provide another four affordable homes that will transform lives for local families on an infill site that should be utilised.”
