Thanet District Councillors voted last night against the proposed local plan which included 2,500 new homes to be built on the site of Manston Airport.
Chris Wells, UKIP leader of the council, came to power on a pledge to reopen Manston as an airport, but he's now backing proposals to build on the site.
Mr Wells said it was "disgraceful" that councillors voted against the proposals.
He said: "It means the government will step in to take over the local plan and Thanet will have to take even more new homes."
Craig Mackinlay, the Conservative South Thanet MP, said: "It shows the tide is going out for UKIP in Thanet."

The average monthly rent in the capital is now £836 while average monthly earnings are just less than £2,300, said jobs site CV-Library.

Paul Luxmoore, executive head teacher at Coastal Academies Trust in Thanet, said without pupil premium "we wouldn’t be able to run our schools for all pupils".
He also claimed the system, which gives schools up to £1,900 per pupil from a disadvantaged background, is “patronising for some families”.
Mr Luxmoore oversees the running Cliftonville Primary School and Hartsdown Academy in Margate, Dane Court Grammar School in Broadstairs, Hartsdown Academy, King Ethelbert School in Westgate-on-Sea and The Royal Harbour Academy in Ramsgate.
Speaking during a Kent County Council select committee meeing on Monday, he said: “It is not the case that you have the money that you literally spend on those students – it doesn’t happen.
“As a national policy - I think it’s bonkers."
A Department of Education spokesman said: “All schools are held to account for how they use pupil premium through performance tables and Ofsted inspections.”
