Brits Oppose Mildenhall Housing Plan: The Air Force wants to construct an estimated 440 homes on the western edge of RAF Mildenhall in Britain, but it is running in to opposition to the project from locals, according to the BBC.

Property developers told the BBC that there would be enough affordable homes available for locals, since a provision exists in the agreement for 160 homes for civilians.
