To seek endorsement and a recommendation to Council to approve the Publication Local Plan for consultation and subsequent submission to the Secretary of State for independent Examination.
This report proposes a consultation on the publication version of the Local Plan, hereafter termed the ‘Publication Local Plan’. The Publication Local Plan sets out the Council’s approach to managing and delivering development for the Borough to 2037. Once adopted it will replace the Core Strategy (2011) and the Development Sites and Policies Plan (2015) but will not replace the Welborne Plan (2015).
The Publication Local Plan identified sites for housing and employment and set policies for future determination of planning applications in topics such as retail. community facilities, and the protection of natural and historic environments in the Borough.
Once adopted, the policies and proposals contained within the Publication Local Plan will form part of Fareham’s statutory development plan and will be used to determine planning applications.
