Thank you for participating in our consultation.

Once the consultation closes, we will read and analyse all the responses we receive, known as 'representations'. We will produce a schedule of representations, which we will publish on our website. Your views will be used to help develop our new Local Plan to the next stage of Preferred Options, where we will set out what we think is the best strategy to meet our needs.

We will carry out further public consultation on those options, which will include specific sites for possible allocation for certain types of development in the new Plan. We expect this to take place at the end of 2018. By responding to this consultation and agreeing to have your contact details stored on our database, you will automatically be notified of future consultations.
