Cherwell Local Plan Review

We welcome your comments on the Cherwell Local Plan Review Community Involvement Paper 2: Developing our Options. This is a really important stage in the preparation of our Local Plan and your feedback on the options and questions contained within the document will help us to shape the future plan. If you have not already viewed the document, we suggest that you do so before starting this form. The document can be viewed here (opens in a new tab).

Thank you for choosing to make your comments online. As we try to reduce the amount of paper and other resources that we use, this is really appreciated. If you have any issues in completing this form, please contact the planning policy team via: Planning.Policy@cherwell-dc.gov.uk

This feedback form is intended to collect views on the Interim Sustainability Appraisal. This document has been prepared to support the preparation of the Cherwell Local Plan Review and help stakeholders and others make informed comments. As it is not a Draft Sustainability Appraisal, it does not assess all available options. Further information on the scope of the document is set out within the introductory chapters.

As part of preparing the Cherwell Local Plan Review, we need to consider sites that may be suitable for development. Please complete this form if you would like to submit a site (land and/or buildings) for consideration, of at least 0.25 hectares in area, or which might be capable of accommodating at least 5 dwellings or at least 500 square metres of employment floor space or a site for gypsies and travellers or travelling showpeople. 

You do not need to own the site to submit the form. For example, you may know of a site close to where you live or work that could be suitable. However, all sites must be accompanied by a map. 

In order to complete this form you will need to provide a map showing the boundaries of the site in either jpeg or pdf form. We will be unable to consider sites where boundaries are not clearly identified.

The designation of land as Local Green Spaces can be made through local and neighbourhood plans. Local Green Space allows communities to identify and protect green areas of particular importance to them. Designating land as Local Green Space should be consistent with the local planning of sustainable development and complement investment in sufficient homes, jobs and other essential services. You can find out more about Local Green Spaces in the National Planning Policy Framework (paragraphs 101-103). 

As part of the Local Plan Review we will be considering sites that could be designated as Local Green Spaces. You do not need to own the site to put if forward for designation. 

Please note that in order to complete this form you will need to provide a map showing the boundaries of the site in either jpeg or pdf form. We will be unable to consider sites where boundaries are not clearly identified.
