Cotswold District Council (CDC) has reached a key stage in its Local Plan Review, publishing the āPreferred Optionsā document as part of the Regulation 18 Consultation stage.
The document outlines CDCās proposed spatial strategy to accommodate a significantly higher housing requirement of 18,650 new homes across the district over the plan period 2026ā2043, which reflects the Governmentās drive to boost national housing delivery.
As such, CDC has launched a āCall for Sitesā. This Call For Sites process invites landowners, developers and other interested parties to put forward land for consideration in meeting a wide range of future development needs.
Submissions are invited for:
ā¢ Market and affordable housing
ā¢ Employment and commercial uses
ā¢ Gypsy and traveller pitches
ā¢ Renewable energy projects
ā¢ New country parks
ā¢ Other types of development identified in the Local Plan
Those who have previously submitted land are encouraged to reconfirm site availability and provide updated delivery information where relevant.
