The Forum has been made aware that a new draft of the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan has been distributed for Consultation.
The Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan and supporting documents can be viewed and comments submitted on the website: www.gnplan.org.uk/consultations
The reasons for the new consultation given are:
“In November 2024, there was a consultation on the Publication Draft of the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan. Since this consultation was undertaken an updated National Planning Policy Framework has been published and Gedling Borough Council has decided to withdraw from the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan.
“Broxtowe Borough, Nottingham City and Rushcliffe Borough Councils are continuing work on the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan. A new Publication Draft (March 2025) has been produced and is now subject to consultation. Key changes include:
- Policy specific content related to Gedling Borough Council has been removed.
- Housing targets for Broxtowe and Rushcliffe Borough Councils have been updated to meet the National Planning Policy Framework (2024) transitional arrangements.
- Additional text has been added to Policy 31 (East of Gamston / North of Tollerton) relating to contributions to infrastructure provision.
The deadline for comments is 5pm on Friday 25th April 2025.
The Forum Steering Group will be reviewing the new text and will be submitting comments and would recommend that you also submit your own comments.
Please note: The previous Regulation 19 Publication Draft, consulted on in November 2024, has been withdrawn. Responses made in relation to this will not be automatically carried forward to this consultation and will not be considered as part of a future examination of the Strategic Plan.
However, you can request that previously made comments are carried forward by selecting the first option on the online response form accessed via https://www.gnplan.org.uk/gnsp25 or emailing contact@gnplan.org.uk.
If you make a response to the consultation let us know through our contact-us page.
