An updated Local Plan is crucial to ensure that our unique places can accommodate growth and meet community needs.

Adopted in 2024 our Local Plan excels in place-shaping, ambitious planning policies, utilising digital technologies for engagement and making the Plan visually interactive - enabling a more inclusive process. It lays a solid foundation for the Borough’s green, inclusive, and liveable future, celebrating our community, cultural institutions, businesses, and environmental commitments while ensuring that new development complements our unique and cherished historic townscapes.
