a list of all of the sites we received in response to our ‘Call for Sites’ for
the new Local Plan.
We launched the Central
Bedfordshire Local Plan in February 2016. The Local Plan is the document that
allocates new homes, jobs and infrastructure over the next 20 years. The ‘Call
for Sites’, which ran until April 2016, was one of the first steps in the Local
Plan process.
The Call for Sites was an
opportunity for agents, landowners and developers to submit land which they
believe could be developed to meet future demand for homes and jobs. The full list of sites that were put forward is now available to view by parish.
Only an estimated 4-6% of the land that has been
submitted will need to be allocated to deliver the new homes that are needed.
We are publishing the
full list of sites that have been submitted with accompanying maps, so that
everyone has the chance to see the sites that will be considered through the
Local Plan process.
Further information
is available on our website.
Can you comment?
We will be holding public events over the summer, where you can find out more about the Local Plan. In addition there will be a consultation on the site assessment criteria from 30 June – 29 July. Once approved, the criteria will be used to shortlist the sites.
At this stage, sites have not been considered so the list of sites has been provided for information only. The opportunity to comment on the shortlist of sites will begin in December when we publish the first draft of the Local Plan.
