Carlisle residents hold a socially distanced protest against the building of homes on Deer Park, St Anns : 7 October 2020.STUART WALKER .Stuart Walker Photography 2020.
A PETITION campaigning against the controversial Deer Park housing plan has amassed more than 600 signatures.
Proposals tabled last year for the estate at Deer Park, Belah have raised a number of concerns amid fears of over-development and the impact on biodiversity.
At the meeting on October 9 councillors asked Cumbria County Council to prepare a report looking into the school provision north of the river.
The decision on whether to approve the 80-home development was subsequently delayed.
Carlisle City Council’s development control committee will again consider the plan today.
