Thank you for visiting Elmbridge Borough Council’s online consultation portal.
Planning for the future of Elmbridge! Publication of the Elmbridge Core Strategy - Proposed submission.
The Elmbridge Core Strategy is the most important document in the Borough's Local Development Framework (LDF) which will guide planning and development in Elmbridge and which will eventually replace the existing Local Plan. It sets out the key elements of the future development of the Borough up until 2026 and aims to co-ordinate the delivery of development and accompanying infrastructure. The Core Strategy has taken account of views already expressed through previous consultation and information gathered through various studies undertaken which form our evidence base. For further information please see our Planning Policy Webpages.
You can make representations on the 'soundness' of the Elmbridge Core Strategy - Proposed submission document over a six-week period, beginning Monday 11 January and finishing at 4pm on Monday 22 February 2010 before it is submitted to the Secretary of State in March 2010 for examination by an independent Planning Inspector, who will decide whether the document is legally compliant, sound and fit for purpose.
