From 5 October to 16 November 2018 we are consulting on the Pre-Submission Development and Allocations Plan (DAP). Newcastle City Council is consulting on the next stage of its Local Plan - the Development and Allocations Plan - a set of documents that will guide future development in Newcastle up to 2030.
Part 1 of the Local Plan, adopted in March 2015 is called the Core Strategy and Urban Core Plan. The Development and Allocations Plan is Part 2 and provides more detailed policies to support our growth ambitions for Newcastle including:
- Policies which will be used to make decisions on planning applications
- Allocations of housing and employment sites to support Part 1
- Designations of retail centre boundaries and sites for environmental protection.
The plan is about providing the right development in the right places at the right time which will make Newcastle a great place to live, work and visit.
