Charnwood 2026 is Charnwood’s Local Development Framework(LDF). It will set out our planning policies and proposals to guide future development in the Borough. It will be made up of a number of documents that will outline our policies for meeting the community's economic, environmental and social needs over the next 15 years or so.

Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA): A review of the Strategic Housing Land Availability Asssessment for Charnwood is starting on Friday 26th February 2010 for a six week period. For more details please click here.


Core Strategy Update: Work to prepare the Charnwood Core Strategy has been ongoing during 2009 and 2010 and a submission draft of the plan was to be published for consultation in March. However, there are still questions around alternative directions for growth and further evidence is required before a decision can be taken on the final submission version of the plan. It is unlikely that this decision will be made until June 2010. This delay also affects the rest of the Local Development Framework programme since other planning documents such as the Site Allocations Development Plan Document and Development Management Policies Development Plan Document are not planned to start until the Core Strategy has been subject to an Examination in Public.
