East of Harry Stoke New Neighbourhood
Supplementary Planning Document - Pre-adoption draft - June 2014

The Council’s Core Strategy, was subject to independent examination in 2012 and adopted in December 2013. It identifies land at East of Harry Stoke for mixed-use development and to help deliver its strategic housing and employment needs up to 2027.

The East of Harry Stoke New Neighbourhood Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) shows in more detail how the Council considers the Core Strategy allocation for 2,000 dwellings, open spaces and supporting infrastructure should be developed.

The Council consulted on preliminary drafts of the SPD in the November 2012-Jan 2013. The Council is now consulting on a revised draft with a view to its adoption and your comments are invited.

Consultation will be between Monday 16^th June and Monday 28^th July 2014.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE COUNCIL HAS EXTENDED THE CONSULTATION PERIOD TO FRIDAY THE 14^TH AUGUST.

The Council has received a number of requests to extend the consultation period because of the holiday period. Comments received will be considered by the Council in deciding whether to adopt the SPD, with or without further amendment. Given the extension to the consultation period, that decision is now expected to be taken in November 2014.

Once adopted, the Supplementary Planning Document will set out the principles and objectives for the area that the Council will use in determining any planning applications for the New Neighbourhood, and will identify the infrastructure required to support the needs of the new communities living there.
