Redrow has submitted plans to build 970 new homes in a £ 200 million ( $ 278 m ) " garden village " development on the outskirts of York . The proposed New Homes Yorkshire development , north of Monks Cross shopping centre and within the city ring road , will include a new primary school , playing fields and a community hub . The proposals also include plans for up to 291 affordable homes , although the actual amount would be determined after discussions with planning officers . The consultants say the site is allocated for housing in the city’s proposed Local Plan and could deliver seven per cent of York’s total housing need. Planning consultants John Mowat said the site could deliver 7 % of the city 's total housing need .
