Consultations
Discussion on the Site Allocations and Policies Plan for the
villages and rural areas across South Worcestershire
Towards the end of 2009 we held
consultations in the main towns across South Worcestershire,
(Worcester, Droitwich Spa, Evesham, Pershore, Malvern, Tenbury
Wells and Upton-upon-Severn. Over 1,000 people visited the
staffed events and made their comments to the SWJCS team.
Similarly, during January to March 2010 the
focus was turned to the rural areas of Malvern Hills and
Wychavon Districts. Planners asked residents, businesses
and others where they thought there were opportunities for houses,
jobs, community facilities, open space and other land uses within
some of the villages across the locality to provide for future
development needs.
We asked local views on potential sites, and
what sort of policies we will need to guide further development and
ensure the rural areas of the district thrive towards the middle of
the century.
The closing data for the Site Allocations and
Policies Development Plan consultation has
now ended (30th April 2010).
