SDC Housing Consultation
SDC (Sevenoaks District Council) invited residents of Sevenoaks to attend meetings where development and housing issues were presented. SDC asked for comments on “The Preferred Options: Core Strategy” and “The interim Housing Policy Supplementary Planning”. Representatives from St. John's Residents' Association attended.
Links to the relevant documents can be found under the "Link" section of this website.
Sevenoaks Primary School
There is a possibility that the open space between Sevenoaks Primary School and the Adult Education Institute may be developed in the future. We are waiting to see if a planning application is submitted and will comment on it as and when it is submitted.
In the meantime, please make your views known regarding the potential development of the green area between the primary school and the Adult Education Centre. You can write to Kent County Council who own the land or to Sevenoaks District Council who will deal with any planning application.
Please let the St John's Residents' Association know about your views and who you have written to.
Local planning applications are listed on our website and you can see details on the Sevenoaks District Council website:
