Introduction 1.1 The Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke-on-Trent Core Spatial Strategy (the Core Spatial Strategy) has been prepared jointly by the two local planning authorities of Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council and the City of Stoke-on-Trent Council. This reflects the strong and well founded reputation that both authorities have for partnership working. Over many years this has worked to secure significant regeneration funding for the sub region, particularly in Stoke-on-Trent, which has seen significant intervention under a wide variety of European, national and regional initiatives. Recently the North Staffordshire Regeneration Partnership has been formed in the desire of all partners in the public, private and voluntary sector to work together towards realising a single vision for the North Staffordshire sub region. The Core Spatial Strategy is a key step towards realising this vision. 1.2 This Core Spatial Strategy also represents the first major stage in the Borough’s and the City’s work to replace their Local Plans with a new Local Development Framework (LDF). The requirement to produce a Local Development Framework was established by the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 which came into force in September 2004.
