CHERWELL DISTRICT COUNCIL LOCAL PLAN REVIEW 2040
A local plan is a long-term document setting out planning policies and proposals for new development within the district and is used to guide decisions on future development proposals as well as addressing the needs and opportunities in the area.
As part of the review process that is HAPPENING NOW, Cherwell District council has given landowners and developers the opportunity to let them know about areas that might be suitable for future development for both housing and commercial purposes.
Cherwell District Council will shortly be reviewing these contributions to decide whether they will be included in the Local Plan which seeks to address the needs of the District up to the year 2040. You have the opportunity to put forward your opinion on this before Wednesday 10th Nov 2021
The red areas on the map indicate the sites submitted and highlighted are those in your area, particularly Nethercote and land north of the A422. Not all of the land submitted within these sites is currently available for development, however being included within the Local Plan now would mean that development at some time in the future would be likely
Developing the area of Nethercote (LPR-A-185) and land north of the A422 (LPR-A-034 and LPR-A-168) for commercial use would have a hugely negative impact on our countryside; increase traffic and place further pressure on the M40 roundabout which is already insufficient for the volume; increase noise from alarms and machinery; remove the natural habitat for wildlife and birds; increase flooding risks by removing permeable surfaces to mention a few. We will all have different areas that are of concern to us, whatever your concerns, please have your say & make your opinions known before Wednesday 10th Nov 2021
