Planning powers for two areas in Macclesfield that will allow brownfield sites to become residential and commercial areas have been granted.The local development order (LDO), which was agreed at a meeting of Cheshire East Council’s cabinet, covers the areas known as North Side and Whalley Hayes.It effectively grants planning consent for a combination of residential and commercial developments – provided it meets the terms of the order, which promotes additional housing by the town centre and the re-use of brownfield land.
