Next Wednesday's planning committee will be deciding whether to go with the recommendation and allow the development in the main yard and buildings of the agricultural merchants' business on the east side of Vallis Road.
The site was identified for housing in Mendip District Council's local plan in 2002. So far the council has received six letters highlighting possible problems the new houses could pose with overlooking existing properties and increased traffic on the busy road with no traffic calming. Some neighbours fear there are too many houses proposed for the size of the site.
Planners believe the site is within a reasonable distance of local facilities and services. The developers will be putting two bus stops on the site.
