The Local Plan will shape the way the
District will develop over the next 10 years up
to 2011, but it is not prepared in isolation. The Joint
Replacement Structure Plan (JRSP, see para A2.11 below) sets
out the overall planning framework including the broad
location of new development for the 1996 – 2011 period.
However, the details about where new development should take
place in Bath & North East Somerset (B&NES)
are decided through the preparation of the Local Plan. |

Consultation on an Issues Report in 1999
has contributed to the emerging policy framework. The Local

now Revised Deposit Draft in Autumn 2003. The Local
Plan covers the period from the 1st April 1996 to
31st March 2011. The timetable and process for
preparation is indicated in Quick Guide 1. |

The character of Bath reflects the history
of the City’s growth, most significant being the distinctive
Georgian period of the Eighteenth Century and
early Nineteenth Centuries, the rapid pace of Victorian
development and post war development. Since the 1960s, the
Green Belt has limited outward growth. The City has 5,000
listed buildings such as the Royal Crescent and the
Conservation Area covers two thirds of the City. Within the
City, there are great opportunities for renewal and
redevelopment. |
