Wyre Local Plan Issues and Options 2024

31st of July, 2024

Wyre Council are asking for comments from the public on the Wyre Local Plan Issues and Options consultation.

The purpose of a local plan is to guide how the borough physically develops over the next 15 years.

The local plan contains policies that guide the Council’s decisions on planning applications, identifying land for development and also land that should be protected from development or where development is strictly controlled.

If you wish to comment, you can do so online through the Wyre Council website – search for local plan on the planning section or click - Wyre Local Plan - Issues and Options 2024

Response forms are available to download online at wyre.gov.uk/local-plan and paper copies can be collected from Wyre libraries (excluding the mobile library) and the Civic Centre.

Public consultation will run from 29 July to 5pm on 10 September 2024.

The full Issues and Options document is available to view on the council website during the consultation dates and at the Civic Centre reception during normal office hours and libraries across Wyre (except the mobile library). Paper response forms and summary leaflets will also be available.
