St Edmundsbury Borough Council
have recently published a planning document called ‘The Local Development
Framework’.
This document sets out the council’s plans for the future of the region up to 2031.
The document includes detailed information about new housing and business developments as well plans for roads and other major facilities.
Detailed maps are supplied along with policy statements covering the borough’s plans for the next 25 years.
It is now the turn of the people of Clare to voice their opinion on the potentially far-reaching plans described
in this document.
The framework has been produced to meet the Government's Regional Spatial Strategy for the East of England, which has earmarked a further 8,150 homes to be built in the borough by 2031. After an initial round of consultation earlier this year, St Edmundsbury has produced a number of preferred options for people to comment on.
At this stage the plans are only proposals and a period of consultation is underway. The council would like to hear from local people on their views about the options suggested.
Any large developments would be built in phases and include employment units and community and social facilities, such as primary schools and shops, to be factored in and all developments in rural areas of five or more properties must have a 40 per cent allocation of low-cost housing, the same rule applying to urban developments of
15 houses or more.
Whatever developments may be selected, the council is bound by policy to prevent large towns merging with rural developments.
A second consultation document, called Site Allocations Issues and Options, also asks people to look at individual sites that landowners and developers have put forward for consideration for development, ranging from one house in someone's garden to a large housing estate.
