ANOTHER Essex council is being urged to pull out of plans for a new Essex town with thousands of homes on greenbelt land reports the Local Democracy Reporter. Brentwood Borough Council is being urged to retract its submission of interest for a new town with 10,000 homes around West Horndon and the edges of Basildon, Thurrock, and Brentwood. Brentwood Borough Council has already given the go-ahead to another project — the Dunton Hills Garden Village — which is due to have at least 3,700 homes. The issue surrounding the new town in West Horndon will be discussed publicly in Brentwood for the first time at a full council meeting next month. Councillor Will Russell, leader of the Tory group at Brentwood Borough Council, said he first heard of it in a private meeting in March.
