Local Plan Consultation
Our District Council has started the preparation of a new Local Plan. This will replace the existing 1998 Local Plan and 2006 Alterations documents. The new Local Plan will guide development in the district up to 2033, being used to deal with planning applications and to provide land allocations.
To assist a download of the main document is available below.
Further information can be found via Epping Forest District Council
The consultation starts on Monday 30th July 2012 and runs for just over 11 weeks to noon on Monday 15th October 2012.
Your contribution can be made on-line via the Planning our Future website
Your responses will help to identify the preferred options and will enable our District Council to prepare a Draft Plan for the next round of consultation in 2013.
