Core Strategy

Strategic Options Paper 2008

» View pages in this section

The Chiltern Development Framework is a new way of planning for the future of the District. It will consist of a folder of documents prepared at different times called "Local Development Documents". The first and most important of these, the Core Strategy, will set out an overall vision and strategy for Chiltern that will guide the future development of the area and set out which parts of the District might be the best locations for new homes and other appropriate development up to 2026. Other documents produced by the Council as part of the Framework will have to be in conformity with the policies contained within the Core Strategy.

This document is a key stage in preparing the Core Strategy. It sets out alternative Scenarios for development in the District up to 2026. Comments are sought on which you think is most appropriate for the future of the District. Your comments will be considered and the Council will then need to prepare a full draft of the Core Strategy. We will consult on this prior to its submission to the Planning Inspectorate. An independent Inspector will hold an Examination to consider the Core Strategy and its overall content and soundness and will subsequently set out the final form of the document. 

Consultation on the Strategic Options Paper took place between 30 June 2008 and 11 August 2008.
