Housing Land Availability Assessment, please let them know.

Who is asking?: Wirral
Borough Council
Closing date for comments:
12 March 2012
The Core
Strategy is a key document in the emerging Local Development Framework
(or Local Plan) for Wirral. This will replace the Unitary
Development Plan for Wirral adopted in February 2000 which dictated what
could be built in certain areas of the borough.
The new Core
Strategy will provide the long term direction for future development and
investment in the borough over the next fifteen years and beyond. When
adopted, the Core Strategy will be used contribute towards decisions on
individual planning applications and will be used to guide the
identification of site-specific land allocations.
The Council is currently working towards approving a Proposed Submission
Draft Core Strategy for consultation in July 2012.
The Council consulted on the Preferred Options for the Core Strategy
between November 2010 and January 2011. The comments received were
reported to the Council in July 2011. As part of this
consultation, a number of respondents indicated that they wanted to be
able to comment on the proposed content of the Settlement Area Policies
being proposed by the Council before they were published as part the
Proposed Submission Draft Core Strategy. This additional consultation is
the Council's response to that request.
