CAMPAIGNERS fighting plans to build housing on a playing field at Bellburn Lane have added their voice to calls for people to attend a meeting where the plans will be discussed.
Darlington Borough Council's place scrutiny committee will discuss the Making and Growing Places document, which sets out where the authority would like to build dozens of houses in the coming years, at a meeting on Thursday at 9.30am.
Mike Crawley, a resident fighting the proposals to build more than 50 houses on Bellburn Lane, off Brinkburn Road, said the council must be shown the strength of feeling against the housing proposals around the town.
He said: "The objections about the plans for Bellburn Lane fill 67 pages of the document. There is such animosity to these plans."
Yesterday , Judith Murray, who is campaigning against proposals to build a 29 acre housing estate at Muscar Farm, in Haughton, called for people to attend the meeting to have their say.
