Reference: 

035/15

The Local Plan for East Cambridgeshire, which manages growth and development in the district for the next 15 years and beyond, has been adopted by Full Council.

The Local Plan seeks to ensure development in the district is 'sustainable' by looking at how much, where and when development should take place.

Emma Grima, Corporate Unit Manager at East Cambridgeshire District Council, said: "With the Local Plan now ratified by Full Council - the district is in a strong position to manage its future growth. From new homes to employment sites and new infrastructure, the Local Plan sets out how East Cambridgeshire will develop and provides a framework for everyone to now work to."

Full details of the adopted Local Plan, together with the earlier consultation and examination stages prior to adoption, can be found on our website at www.eastcambs.gov.uk.
