Consultation opens on draft strategic local plan

Note from the District Council

A public consultation on the draft Strategic Local Plan (SLP) for St Albans District has opened and will run for six weeks.

Once formally agreed and adopted, the final plan will form a blueprint for development in the District over the next two decades.

A consultation in October and November 2014 addressed the context of the draft plan.

Residents, community groups, developers and other interested parties are now invited to make representations on whether the SLP meets the legal requirements and is “sound”.

After considering the evidence provided by those responding to the consultation, St Albans City and District Council may make amendments to the SLP.

The SLP sets out overall development policies for the District until 2031 and identifies land for housing, social facilities, commerce and infrastructure.

It can be viewed online at www.stalbans.gov.uk/slp  where information is available on how to make a representation.

The SLP can also be viewed at the Council’s offices in St Peters Street, St Albans, AL1 3JE. Information packs are available at libraries and Town and Parish Council offices.
