Share your views on the Joint Local Plan for South and Vale

South Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse District Councils are working together to produce a new Joint Local Plan.
 

A Local Plan looks ahead fifteen years and plans how much development is needed in an area, like new homes, jobs, roads and schools, and where they should go. It also sets standards for environmental protection, sustainability, water quality and much more.

Requiring sustainable development; protecting and enhancing our countryside; setting higher energy efficiency standards for new buildings; and prioritising more sustainable transport options – these are all benefits planned for South Oxfordshire and the Vale of White Horse, and everyone is being invited to join the conversation. 

Innovative draft policies to address local challenges and unlock future opportunities across the two districts have been published for community feedback, as part of the councils’ work to deliver their Joint Local Plan 2041. 

The six-week consultation launches on 10 January and will run until 11.59pm on 21 February 2024. Visit southandvale.gov.uk/JLP to find out more and have your say. 

 

There will be an in person drop-in event at Centre 70 in Wallingford on 25th January from 3pm – 8pm  where you can ask questions and have your say.
