Planning - Local Plan
Introduction - New Local Plan
In response to the publication of the National Planning Policy Framework in 2012, Council Members have agreed to the production of a new Local Plan.
This new Plan, once adopted, will form part of the Council's Development Plan and will replace the current suite of adopted local plans. The new Plan will have a time horizon up to 2031.
In the interim, the suite of adopted local plans and any adopted Neighbourhood Plans will continue to represent the core of the Council's Development Plan, having been prepared under the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.
