Core Strategy latest

The Core Strategy Inspector has now published his report. The good news is that he has supported the strategy for protecting our villages and locating the majority of the massive development required for South Gloucestershire in the North Fringe of Bristol along with extensions to Yate and Thornbury.

He has suggested that Woodlands Farm, Coalpit Heath should be considered for inclusion in the Green Belt. This would be when South Gloucestershire Council reviews the Core Strategy which he requires to be complete by 2018. Meanwhile both Westerleigh and Frampton Cotterell Parish Councils have requested South Gloucestershire Council to give it “Local Green Space” designation in the Planning Document they are preparing to accompany the Core Strategy.
