6^th Jan to 17^th Feb 2023

Great Yarmouth Borough Council is preparing a new Local Plan which will set out a strategy for the development of the Borough over the period to 2041. It will set out the amount of new development needed and will determine where that development will go and how it should be delivered.

The new Local Plan will also contain planning policies that will be used in determining planning applications. The Local Plan will take into account the policies of existing and emerging Neighbourhood Plans and set a framework for future Neighbourhood Plans.

Everybody is invited to participate in a consultation to help inform the new Local Plan. This consultation aims to get your views on some of the key matters the new Local Plan will need to contain. The consultation comprises a series of questions to help the Council prepare the Local Plan.

The consultation seeks views on how much development we should be planning for and where that development should go. The consultation also asks questions on what infrastructure is needed and what planning policies they should have to manage new development.

The consultation can be viewed here: https://www.great-yarmouth.gov.uk/planning-consultations

Comments can be made by using the interactive document available at the above link.

Alternatively, you can email a response to localplan@great-yarmouth.gov.uk quoting the question(s) or site(s) you are responding to.

They can also accept responses by post to Strategic Planning, Great Yarmouth Borough Council, Town Hall, Hall Plain, Great Yarmouth, NR30 2QF.

There is a drop-in event in the Assembly Room at the Town Hall on 26th January from 4pm to 8pm where members of the public can talk to planning officers about the consultation and give their views.

Please ensure all comments are received by 5pm on 17th February 2023.
