Have your say on planning for Christchurch’s future
Christchurch Borough Council is inviting its residents to have their say on the new local plan proposals for the Borough.
This new local plan for Christchurch will set the overall strategy for development across the Borough to 2033 and this consultation will give residents the opportunity to give their views.
The Christchurch local plan review aims to deliver around 5,270 new homes and 54 hectares of new employment land, which will provide thousands of new jobs and associated key transport infrastructure to the Borough.
The delivery of new homes will be provided in the plan between now and 2033, and include:
• 2,460 homes within the existing urban area
• Area 1: Bransgore and Hoburne: 190 dwellings
• Area 2: Town Centre, Stony Lane and Bridge Street: 213 dwellings
• Area 3: Land South and East of Burton: 568 dwellings
• Area 4: Former West Hants Water, Knapp Mill and Avon Trading Park: 55 dwellings.
Christchurch Borough Council will also be giving the opportunity to visit one of the roadshows.
• Regent Centre Foyer Tuesday 7 August, 3pm-7pm
• Burton United Reformed Church Thursday 9 August, 3pm-7pm.
