Help Shape the Future of Hastings

We are now preparing a series of planning documents called the Hastings Local Development Framework (LDF).  The Hastings LDF will guide the town's growth and change over the next 20 years, and will gradually replace the existing Local Plan.

It's important that local people help shape the LDF, so make sure you or your group are signed up to receive updates about it, including details about future consultations.  To add your name or group to the consultation database, please contact our Forward Planning services section.

The next stage of the LDF will be the "Core Strategy: Preferred Options".  To write this we have to:

  • consider the comments received in the "Core Strategy Issues and Options" consultation that took place at the end of last year
  • prepare a number of documents and studies, looking at issues such as flood risk, sustainable construction and land for housing
  • assess the the environmental, economic and social impacts of the different issues and options

Work is well under way and we plan to have the document ready for publication and consultation in early 2008.
