Cherwell Local Plan 2040 Consultation

Kidlington calls for Local Green Spaces (LGS's)

Cherwell is again consulting on the next Local Plan which will shape the District out to 2040.

KDW has submitted its response and is calling on local residents to have their say.

Importantly, we are calling for Cherwell to take action to protect the remaining Green Belt.

We call for Local Green Spaces to be designated to preserve our 'village in a landscape' for posterity. Please support us !

We'll be posting updates via our blog.

Cherwell district Council - Local Plan 2040 consultation

KDW's response to Cherwell Council's current consultation on its local plan is now available to download.

We support and expand on Kidlington Parish Council's initial proposal for a linked network of 'Local Green Spaces" (LGS) surrounding the village. We focus on the positive reasons for LGS designation rather than reasons why the surrounding Green Belt sites should not be built upon.

Cherwell district Council - Local Plan 2040 consultation

Cherwell District Council is currently consulting on the next version of its Local Plan. This has provoked another 'feeding frenzy' of interest from developers keen to be allowed to build in and around Cherwell’s villages. The map below shows the sites (in pink) they have put forward in Kidlington parish alone. Almost all of them are in the Green Belt, which has already been substantially reduced under the previous plan.
The image below says it all!
