Call for Sites

The Council is commencing work on its Core Strategy - the key document of the new Local Development Framework (LDF).

An immediate priority of the LDF is to make sufficient land allocations to meet:
1. The housing and employment targets and infrastructure requirements of the East of England Plan (EEP) which was adopted last month and deals with the period up to 2021; and
2. Provision for gypsies and travellers in accordance with the Single Issue Review of the EEP.

The Core Strategy, however, should look at least 15 years beyond the date of its adoption which would mean the period up to approximately the mid 2020s.

The letter and form below seek opinion on sites that may have genuine potential for development over at least the next fifteen years.

Please complete and return the form to the Council by Friday 18 July 2008 - even if you have had recent discussions with officers or are involved in current applications. This exercise is part of the “frontloading” required under the new planning system

The form can be completed electronically and returned by email,
or if you would prefer, it can be printed and returned by post:

• Call for Sites - Letter June 2008
