  • Core Strategy Further Preferred Options
    APPENDIX 1 Core Strategy Further Preferred Options Draft September 2009 PLANNING YOUR FUTURE Summary Looking forward to 2021 and beyond, the District will remain a prosperous, safe and healthy place where people want, and are able to, live and work. This is our plan for Three Rivers over the next 15 years or so. To help achieve this, the Council is preparing a new type of development plan for the District called the Local Development Framework. The Core Strategy forms part of this and is important in setting out what our area will look and feel like by 2021 and beyond. The Local Development Framework will replace the existing Local Plan and will link with other strategies such as the Sustainable Community Strategy so that local priorities can be delivered on the ground. We carried out extensive public consultation at an early stage of the Core Strategy (known as ‘Issues and Options’ stage) during 2006 and 2007. This identified the many challenges we face, including how the future needs of the community could be met, whilst retaining and enhancing the special character of the District. More recently, in February and March 2009, we carried out public consultation on the Council’s ‘Preferred Options’. This set out details of how much development will be needed to meet our regional targets, where new houses, jobs and services will go and how we will assess planning applications and control future development. Following on from the last public consultation and taking into account the many responses received, we have decided to consult further on our ‘Preferred Options’.
