The Local Plan Conversation engagement exercise has now closed
Thank you to everyone who took part. A copy of the feedback report, comments on existing Local Plan policies and suggestions of sites and locations for new development and land that is important to protect, are available here. There were a number of comments that did not relate to the Local Plan but to issues dealt with by other Council departments. Where possible all these other comments have been passed to the relevant services.
The findings of this engagement were discussed by the Council’s Cabinet on 20 April 2022. Information about the meeting is available here.
Your feedback supported this discussion at Cabinet, where it was agreed that the Council commits to an update of the Local Plan (Part One) and commences initial work, including evidence gathering in advance of this, and establishes a cross-party Member Working Group. A report setting out the scope and timetable will be approved at a future Cabinet meeting.
What could the Local Plan do to support an inclusive economy, green jobs and our town centres?
Supporting businesses and ensuring job opportunities is important. There are opportunities to develop a new 'green economy' with the potential for more than 33,000 new jobs to be created in the low-carbon and renewable energy sectors in Cheshire.
The Covid pandemic has changed working and leisure patterns which has had an impact on town centres. Changes to the planning system have also made it easier to convert offices to homes in town centres and business parks.
We want to know what you think the Local Plan could do to meet the key challenges of supporting the economy, green jobs and our town centres in the future.
