Cheshire East has started the ball rolling on its new Local Plan which will eventually set the blueprint for development in the borough into the 2040s.
A 12-week consultation is now underway on Cheshire East Council’s ‘Local Plan issues paper’ and feedback is invited from residents, businesses and other organisations about how future planning policies can help to address a wide range of issues.
These include meeting the borough’s future housing needs, tackling climate change, providing new jobs, restoring nature and supporting healthier lifestyles.
Views are also invited on a number of other draft reports that will help inform the content of the new Local Plan, including about the availability of land for future development.
The deadline for responding is 5pm on Monday 1 July 2024.
