Green and Blue Infrastructure
Consultation has concluded
The countryside is also a vital habitat for wildlife, supporting a diverse range of birds, animals, and plants.
Our towns and villages are surrounded by countryside, and it's important to carefully consider which areas should be preserved and where new homes might be built. We are keen to hear your thoughts on how we can create well-designed and beautiful places across the district.
To guide our future design policies, we will be incorporating the principles from the National Design Code, ensuring that new developments are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. Chapter 9 of our Further Issues and Options consultation document sets out options for protecting and enhancing our green and blue infrastructure.
How do I get involved?
The consultation is open from 23 April until 4 June. You can participate in the consultation by visiting our online consultation platform here.
