Planning Policy
Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan
Broxtowe Borough, Gedling Borough, Nottingham City and Rushcliffe Borough Councils are currently undertaking a review of the Aligned Core Strategies. This will result in the production of the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan.
The Councils have undertaken a consultation of the Publication Draft of the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan.
Details of the consultation can be found on the Greater Nottingham Planning Partnership website. (Opens in a New Window)
The consultation period was from Monday 4th November 2024 to 17:00 on Monday 16th December 2024.
Local Plan
Broxtowe Borough Council's Local Plan has been undertaken in two parts:
- Part 1 of the Local Plan (the Aligned Core Strategy) is already established and sets the strategic vision, aims and objectives for the borough as a whole until 2028. The Aligned Core Strategy is currently being reviewed and this will result in the production of the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan.
- Part 2 of the Local Plan delivers the strategic aims and objectives as set out in the Core Strategy.
The Local Plan, part 1 and part 2, replaces the 2004 Local Plan which is now located in our Historical Planning Documents webpage.
Neighbourhood Plans
A number of local communities are currently in the process of preparing Neighbourhood Plans for specific areas within the borough which, once ‘made’, will sit alongside the Local Plan and will take precedence over non-strategic policies.
The following Neighbourhood Plans have been 'made' (adopted) by the Borough Council and so form part of the Borough's Development Plan for their respective Neighbourhood Areas:
- Awsworth Neighbourhood Plan(.pdf)(7MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window) and Policies Map(.pdf)(2MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window)
- Chetwynd: The Toton and Chilwell Neighbourhood Plan(.pdf)(13MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window) and Policies Map(.pdf)(2MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window)
- Cossall Neighbourhood Plan(.pdf)(11MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window) and Policies Map(.pdf)(1.4MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window)
- Nuthall Neighbourhood Plan(.pdf)(3.9MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window) and Policies Map(.pdf)(1.6MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window)
Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs)
Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs) are documents which add further detail to the policies in the Development Plan. They can be used to provide further guidance for development on specific sites, or on particular issues. SPDs can be a material consideration in planning decisions but are not part of the statutory development plan.
The Borough Council has adopted the following SPDs:
- Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) SPD(.pdf)(1.6MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window)
- Toton and Chetwynd Barracks Strategic Masterplan Supplementary Planning Document (SPD)(.pdf)(10.5MB)(Opens in New Window) (Opens in a New Window)
The Council is also preparing a Reduction of Carbon in New Development Supplementary Planning Document
Local Development Scheme
The timescale for the preparation of the Local Plan is set out in the Local Development Scheme (LDS).
Measuring Progress
To measure progress towards achieving planning objectives set out in the Local Plan, completed development is monitored and reported in the Authority Monitoring Report (AMR). Land availability and supply is monitored and reported in the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA).
Involving the Community
For all aspects of developing the plan, the Council has set out the way in which it will consult with residents and stakeholders in the Statement of Community Involvement (SCI).
