RESIDENTS have two weeks to have their say on a major housing application for Heybridge.

Countryside Properties has removed a flood alleviation scheme from its application for up to 1,138 homes on land near Broad Street Green Road, Maypole Road and Langford Road.

This means that the plans, known as the North Heybridge Garden Suburb, will now have to be completely re-determined, nearly two years after first being approved in December 2016.

Maldon District Council put the revised bid out for consultation again before councillors will get a second chance to vote on it.

The public consultation will last 30 days, with the final day set to be October 31, around two weeks away.

Following this, the plans will be put before an extraordinary planning committee of Maldon District Council members.
