Call for sites 2023
The council recently undertook an additional call for sites exercise (previous consultation undertaken in early 2022). This consultation closed on Friday 17th March 2023.
The council sought sites, land or buildings in the borough that could have potential for future development, redevelopment or designation for:
- housing
- employment and employment generating development
- retail, leisure and commercial uses
- gypsies and travellers and travelling showpeople
- renewable, community and low carbon energy
- nature recovery/ biodiversity net gain
- natural flood management
Please refer to the guidance note for additional information.

The council will consider the submitted sites when developing the new Local Plan. At this stage, the sites have not been assessed and no decision has been taken on which sites, if any, to include in the Local Plan. Until such a time as any site is formally allocated or designated, any submissions will have no weight as a material planning consideration in the determination of planning applications.
