Get Involved in Local Plan Review

A raft of planning policies that will affect future development in Brentford

This Monday saw the launch of a number of slightly overlapping consultations on planning future for Brentford (and the rest of the borough).

Public response is important and will help shape the final documents which help inform planning decisions at the very least.

The Local Plan sets out much of the planning framework for the borough. Adopted in 2015 it will last until 2030. The Planning Inspector recommended two local reviews, of the Great West Corridor and West of Borough in Feltham.

The draft Local Plan Review sets out

• A Vision for the Plan areas
• Policies addressing specific issues in the areas
• Place policies for areas where regeneration and growth will be directed
• Amendments to the existing Local Plan 2015 
• The identification of potential development sites (Site allocations)

Documentation for the above and links to all supporting evidence (and there's a lot of it) can be accessed at Local Plan Review.

There is a separate consultation on the Draft Great West Corridor Plan which is being identified as an Opportunity Area in the emerging London Plan

and on the Draft Brentford East Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) which provides guidance on developing Brentford East while the Local Plan is being finalised.

These consultations will run from Monday 23rd October until midnight Sunday 10th December.
