Chiltern and South Bucks Local Plan 2036

The Local Plan 2036 sets out how Chiltern and South Bucks will develop over the next 20 years.

 

It establishes how we can plan positively for our communities' needs, improve the quality of life and put in place the necessary infrastructure to support development, whilst also protecting our valued environment and the character of our towns and villages.

The Government expects local authorities to have up-to-date Local Plans in place to guide development and plan for the infrastructure, homes and jobs that communities need.

Failure to have an up-to-date plan would risk Government intervention and a resulting loss of control of the process. It protects us from speculative development which can sometimes happen without sufficient benefit to local communities.
