Worcester City, Malvern Hills District and Wychavon District Councils are consulting on the South Worcestershire Development Plan review. The plan addresses a local need for 26,360 new homes in the area and provides policies that will support:
- Business growth
- Rural communities
- The fight against climate change
This is the final consultation on the plan review, prior to submission to the Secretary of State for Examination. Comments submitted to this consultation will be sent with the plan for the appointed planning inspector to consider.
The review seeks to deliver an additional 13,420 homes and 290 hectares of employment land to help meet the needs of the area up to 2041. This will be delivered across four strategic allocations as well as smaller sites within existing urban areas and larger villages.
The consultation period runs until 13 December 2022.
