Planning policy

When we decide individual planning applications, we assess them against our local planning policies.

Following national policy rules, we must set out how we want the district to develop over the long-term.

Our Planning Policy Team is responsible for producing our plans - setting out where we will allow new homes to be built and businesses to be established.

Current Consultations

We are currently consulting on the Draft Diseworth Village Design Statement.  The consultation closes at 5pm Monday 28th September. 

We are undertaking a Call for New Sites for our Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHELAA). The call for sites closes at 5pm on 21 October 2020.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the current Coronavirus situation, the best method by which to contact the Planning Policy team at present is email.
