Call for sites and ideas is now closed
Our call for sites and ideas event, which ran from 15 December 2025 until 31 March 2026, is now closed. If you made a submission through our consultation portal, thank you!
Through the Call for Sites, we invited developers, landowners and agents to put forward sites they would like to be considered for future allocation in the next Local Development Plan. The Call for Ideas provided an opportunity for stakeholders, including developers, landowners, the public and community organisations, to put forward ideas or sites they would like the Planning Authority to consider for inclusion in the Proposed Local Development Plan.
The Planning Team will now process the submissions received. All sites and ideas submitted will have to be processed and analysed using our site assessment criteria, as well as referencing national and local planning policies, and an emerging spatial strategy. We need to ensure they are required and suitable for development. This is a lengthy internal process, which will result in some sites and ideas being included in the Proposed Local Development Plan.
