Gypsy and Traveller Sites Plan

The Gypsy and Traveller Sites Plan will allocate land to meet the need for Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation in the borough. It has to conform to the approach set out in the council's Core Strategy and Rural Issues Plan, in particular the broad location for development and Policy CP9 which sets out the approach to be taken to the allocation of sites for Gypsy and Traveller development.

 

The preparation of the Gypsy and Traveller Sites Plan is being undertaken following the resolution of the council's Executive on 13 July 2011 to split the allocation of Gypsy and Traveller sites from the main body of the emerging Allocations and Designations Plan. The Allocations and Designations Plan will progress independently. Further detail about the reasons for this decision can be found in the Executive papers. The Local Development Scheme has been reviewed to take account of this change.
