New date set for government inspector’s appeal over contentious Mount Leven housing plan

An appeal hearing over a controversial housing plan has been given a new date.

Government-appointed inspector Susan Hunt is to conduct the one-day hearing into Mandale Homes’ proposals to build 215 homes on fields at Mount Leven Farm, Leven Bank Road, Yarm. The appeal will now be heard in July.

The hearing had been set with another inspector for May. However it was postponed for a different inspector to be appointed “due to a personal conflict of interest”. Now the rescheduled hearing will be held at Stockton Business Centre on Tuesday, July 11. The inspector is expected to visit the site on the previous day.
