Edlesborough Parish Council

The Buckinghamshire Council Local Plan is proposing SIX sites across Edlesborough & Northall as suitable for new homes.

Currently the proposed housing numbers are 334 houses in Edlesborough and 145 houses in Northall.

On 17^th February Buckinghamshire Council (BC) released the list of sites they consider are suitable or partially suitable for inclusion in the new Buckinghamshire Local Plan, the replacement for the VALP (Vale of Aylesbury Local Plan). All Councils must develop a plan to say where they think their share of the national government's new housing targets could be built. At this stage potential sites have been assessed for suitability, and all residents have the chance to comment. This is separate to a planning application, and these sites may or may not progress to that stage. To view this and respond to the survey, please follow https://yourvoicebucks.citizenspace.com/planning/2aa4b313/ and follow the links to their interactive map and/or Excel spreadsheet.
