Core Strategy
Draft Core Strategy - Public Consultation (March 2010)
Shaping the future of Chiltern District to 2026 Chiltern District Council's Draft Core Strategy
11th March to 23rd April 2010
This consultation is now closed
The Government requires this Council to find and identify land for 2,900 homes in Chiltern District for the period 2006 up to 2026. This process is part of the "Core Strategy" which will become a key document of the "New Local Development Framework" which will replace our current Chiltern Local Plan. This document sets out how we expect to achieve that, whilst at the same time protecting the Green Belt.
Now we are asking you, local residents and businesses, for your comments. We would very much welcome your thoughts, whether you live in our towns, villages or countryside, so we can obtain balanced views from across the whole district.
Please Note: When submitting your comments on the Chiltern Draft Core Strategy (by whichever method), you must supply your Name, Postal Address and Post Code for your comments to be processed and taken into account.
If you are a resident or own a business within the District, a summary leaflet and questionnaire notifying you of this public consultation will also be sent to your house separately.

Sustainability Appraisal
Sustainability Appraisal is a process used to appraise the social, environmental and economic effects of the Core Strategy from the outset of its production. The aim of the Sustainability Appraisal is to help ensure that decisions made throughout the various stages in the production of the Core Strategy contribute to it achieving the aims of sustainable development. The sustainability appraisal process is therefore used to inform decision making and to demonstrate that the Core Strategy contains the most appropriate options for development when considered against all reasonable alternatives.
Comments on the Preliminary Sustainability Appraisal (June 2009) and its Update (March 2010) are also sought . These documents can be accessed via the links below.
