Planning for the Future of Elmbridge
Publication of Elmbridge Core Strategy - Proposed submission
The |Elmbridge Core Strategy is the most important document in the Borough's |Local Development Framework (LDF) which will guide planning and development in Elmbridge and which will eventually replace the existing |Local Plan. It sets out the key elements of the future development of the Borough up until 2026. It aims to co-ordinate the delivery of development and accompanying infrastructure. The Core Strategy includes specific policies for different areas of the Borough, as well as more general polices that apply to all areas. It has to take account of national and regional planning policy. It helps to deliver the |Elmbridge Sustainable Community Strategy whose overall aim is to ensure that Elmbridge offers quality of life both for current and future generations. All subsequent documents in the LDF will need to accord with the Core Strategy.
The Elmbridge Core Strategy - Proposed submission takes account of views already expressed through previous consultation and information gathered through various studies undertaken which form our evidence base. It has been subject to |Sustainability Appraisal / Strategic Environmental Assessment which assesses the social, environmental and economic impacts of the strategy, as well as Habitats Regulations Assessment which considers the potential effects on European wildlife sites.
