The Call for Sites ran from 29 March to 7 June 2023. It was an opportunity for people to send the council details of sites that might be suitable for allocation in the next Local Plan.
The Call for Sites asked people to submit sites with potential for:
-
residential use (such as housing, specialist homes, moorings, care homes)
-
commercial use (such as retail, leisure, industrial, logistics)
-
infrastructure (such as health uses, community facilities, renewable energy)
-
open space use (such as sports and recreation, allotments, biodiversity net gain, flooding safeguarding)
An Ongoing Call for Sites was opened to allow those who missed the initial Call to still submit sites. This closed on 31 January 2025.
All sites submitted during the Call for Sites can be found on our interactive map and also in this spreadsheet [XLSX, 38KB], which is ordered by parish.
You can use this spreadsheet to find the Call for Site reference number (this starts with CfS). The CfS reference can also be found on the interactive map when you click on a site. This reference number can then be used to search on our Consultation Portal for the site submission. Please note, you only need to type the number into the search box. Here you can view further details of the site and any supporting documents that have been submitted.
Please note that the submission of a site only means that the site will be considered and assessed as to whether it has potential to be suitable for future development. This does not guarantee that it will be allocated for development in the Local Plan or that planning permission can be obtained for the proposed development.
Next steps
Sites submitted after 1 August 2024 were too late to be considered in the consultation on sites held between September and November 2024. These additional sites submitted between 1 August 2024 and 31 January 2025 are now being consulted upon between 23 April and ending on 4 June 2025. Please go to our consultation portal for further information.
This webpage will be updated periodically when further information is available.
