Introduction What is the Core Strategy? 1.1 The Core Strategy is the key document in the Local Development Framework (LDF). It describes what we want Bolton to look like in the future up to 2026, and the planning policies that will be used to make it a reality. It reflects the spatial aspects of the work of Bolton Council and its partners. 1.2 Along with other documents within the LDF, the Core Strategy forms the basis for how planning application decisions are made in Bolton, a nd replaces the existing Unitary Development Plan (UDP). A site-specific Allocations Development Plan Document is also being worked upon which, once published, will also help guide planning decisions in Bolton on a site-by-site basis. National planning policy also needs to be taken into account in planning decisions, for example Planning Policy Statement (PPS) 1 on delivering sustainable development, PPS3 on housing, and PPS5 on planning for the historic environme nt. The council will determine planning applications in its role as local planning authority, but the Core Strategy policies refer to the council and its partners to reflect the importance of partners in delivering the policies. 1.3 The following diagram shows how the Core Strategy relates to other documents within the LDF folder. Figure 1.1: The Local Development Framework Bolton’s Core Strategy Shaping the future of Bolton 7 1.4 This document is Bolton’s adopted Core Strategy and is the result of extensive public consultation, factual evidence collection, a Sustainability Appraisal and policy document reviews prepared by Bolton Council and its partners. 1.5 The Core Strategy goes beyond traditional land use planning, bringing together policies for the development and use of land with other policies that influence the nature and function of areas in Bolton. It sets out broad aims for the de livery of housing and other requirements such as employment, retail, leisure, community and essential public services and transport. 1.6 This document contains the following information: • A description of the current state of Bolton and issues that need addressing. • The vision and objectives for Bolton’s development over the next fifteen years, including area-specific plans. • Information on how policies will be implemented and objectives achieved across Bolton. • A key diagram and other illustrations to explain the Core Strategy. 1.7 It is important to read this document as a whole, as each of the chapters and themes contained with the Core Strategy are integrated and describe an overall approach to the future spatial planning of Bolton. Facts and strategies 1.8 The Core Strategy has been developed by taking into account information gathered from a wide variety of sources, including studies conducted on behalf of Bolton Council. It also reflects a wide range of relevant council and partner strategies at national, regional and local levels. Appendix 2 contains a full list of the evidence base and strategies used in developing this document. 1.9 National policies for the conservation of the historic environment are set out in PPS 5: Planning for the Historic Environment. Guidance on the implementation of this policy is provided in the accompanying Practice Guide. 1.10 The following studies and asse ssments are of particular importance: • Employment Land Study • Strategic Housing Market Assessment • Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment • Retail and Leisure Study • Open Space Assessment 1.11 These strategies have strong links with the Core Strategy: • Bolton’s Sustainable Community Strategy • North West of England Plan – Regional Spatial Strategy to 2021 • Greater Manchester Local Transport Plan 2006-2011 1.12 The Local Development Framework Annual Mo nitoring Report (AMR) tracks progress on the implementation of spatial planning policies. A wide range of up-to-date background information is contained in the latest version, published each December. Bolton’s Core Strategy 8 Local Development Framework Sustainable development 1.13 Sustainable development is the core principle underpinning planning. At the heart of sustainable development is the simple idea of ensuring a better quality of life for everyone, now and for future generations. The Core Strategy ensures that sustainable development is treated in an integrated way. It considers the interrelationship between social inclusion, protecting and enhancing the environment, the prudent uses of natural resour ces and economic prosperity.

Spatial portrait and issues 2.1 This section looks at the main attributes of Bolton and key monitoring information. It looks at Bolton’s regional context, geography, accessibility, social characteristics and finally the economy including information on neighbourhood renewal and deprivation. All these characteristics and issues are interlinked. Figure 2.1: Diagram of Bolton Context 2.2 Bolton’s story is one of determination and ambition, a town built on aspiration and resilience. Since the middle of the 20th century the traditional manufacturing base has been completely re-shaped and other sectors have grown to replace manufacturing. Some production industries have modernised around new technology and the service sector has grown significantly. 2.3 The North West region is characterised by stark contrasts and striking landscapes. Bolton forms part of the Manchester City Region which is a major centre for economic activity and is the focus of a significant proportion of the future development activity for the region.

  • Housing Land Availability Study 2008
    Housing Land Availability Study Adjusted to March 2008 Development and Regeneration Department Planning Division– Spatial Planning Team 1 Current Housing Land Commitment Adjusted to March 2008 Background 1) This note updates the housing land position relating to the situation at the 31st March 2008 and considers the distribution of development land, provides information on new planning permission ns, and assesses the balance between private and housing association provision. It also provides detailed information relating to dwellings completed in the past year. Housing Land Requirements & Supply 2) Planning Policy Statement 3: Housing (PPS 3) was published in November 2006 with an objective to ensure that the planning system delivers a flexible, responsive supply of land, reflecting the principles of “Plan, Monitor, Manage”. From April 2007 Local Planning Authorities are required to identify sufficient specific and deliverable sites to ensure a rolling 5-year supply of housing and demonstrate the extent to which existing plans already fulfil the housing requirement. To be deliverable sites must be: available, suitable and achievable in the next 5 years and there is also a requirement to demonstrate a 15 year supply. 3) To address this the Local Planning Authority is required to undertake an annual Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA). The first SHLAA for Bolton was commenced in December 2007 by consultants Roger Tym & Partners and the results from this will be published in the summer 2008 including a 5 and 15 year housing supply figures. 4) The SHLAA replaces the former annual Housing Land Availability Study that updated the housing land position in the Borough and reported on the distribution of development land, provided information on new planning permissions and dwelling completions.
