Spatial Options Consultation - Next Stages
Planning tomorrow today
The Council has undertaken an extended period of public
consultation and engagement on the
Core Strategy Spatial Options
Document between October 2009 and January
2010.
The consultation has generated a considerable number of comments
which we are now in the process of considering. We will be
taking account of the key issues emerging from the comments
alongside any other evidence or work that may need to be completed
to support a robust long term strategy for the District.
The Council anticipates that the draft Core Strategy will be
published for consultation towards the end of 2010.
Once adopted in late 2011, the Core Strategy will set out the
long term spatial vision for Bath & North East Somerset up to
2026 and the broad locations for new housing, jobs and other
strategic developments. It will also focus on the delivery of
policy objectives and any infrastructure requirements. The Core
Strategy will provide the policy context for other development plan
documents (DPDs) in the LDF.
Please see the following page for
background information on the Core Strategy and
