Core Strategy Preferred Option
The Preferred Option sets out for the first time the complete Core Strategy, including the detailed wording of policies and proposals, and the allocation of key sites across the District for development over the next twenty years.
Earlier parts of the process explored possible opportunities and options for growth and change, and a wealth of information has been gathered ranging from technical studies and reports (see evidence base), to feedback from stakeholders and the community (see results). This information has all been influential in preparing a development strategy for the District which must comply with national and regional planning guidance.
