Pennbury Eco-town proposal - consultation events and key links

Proposals have been put forward by the Cooperative Group to build an eco-town, provisionally given the name Pennbury, on land they own between Leicester, Oadby, Thurnby and Houghton on the Hill.

This is one of 15 locations accross the country shortlisted for a new eco-town by the Government in April.

Government recently held a consultation which closed on 30 June on preliminary views on eco-towns in general and the 15 locations shortlisted.
Further consultation will take place on more detailed assessments of the 15 locations from July to October.

In June there was a series of consultation events and exhibitions for people to find out more about the proposals and have your say.
Details of further consultation events will be published here once confirmed.
