  • Track Changed’ Version of Proposed Draft Changes to Core Strategy Policy Text
    Appendix 4: ‘Track Changed’ Version of Proposed Draft Changes to Core Strategy Policy Text August 2014 1 Foreword: Derby is a special place; a historic and industrial city on the doorstep of one of the UK’s most visited and picturesque national parks, the Peak District. It’s a city which is passionate about progress and continues to grow, punching above its weight in terms of its contribution to the UK economy. A city that is home to prestigious global brands such as Rolls- Royce, Bombardier and with close links to Toyota, with a highly skilled workforce specialising in the manufacture of planes, trains and automobiles. A city with excellent road and rail links close to a rapidly expanding regional airport. Derby is an attractive city where people want to live and work and where people come to shop, to be entertained and to spend their leisure time. Derby is a city which, despite its rapid growth, retains its heritage and has valued areas of green space and high quality townscape; a city that has a World Heritage Site at its heart. The challenge for the future is to meet the demands for economic prosperity while retaining the qualities that make Derby such a special place. We need to solve existing and emerging problems and to establish Derby as a sustainable city fit for the 21st century. Our best chance to meet these existing and future challenges and keep Derby as a place we can all be proud of, is to plan for them. Thies draft version of the Core Strategy sets out how Derby City Council intends to meet these challenges up to 2028.
