The South Worcestershire Development Plan is
being prepared jointly by Malvern Hills District, Worcester
City and Wychavon District councils and will guide development
in the area up to the year 2030. Once adopted, it will be the new
Local Plan and replace the existing Local Plans of the three
councils.

The current adopted Local Plan
for the district is the Malvern Hills District Local Plan which was
adopted in 2006. It provides guidance on how planning proposals and
applications in the district will be considered. Some policies
continue to be 'saved' until they are superseded by the new Local
Plan.
