Your Vale - Your Future

The Vale of Glamorgan Council is preparing a new Local Development Plan (LDP), which will set out how land within the Vale of Glamorgan is used between 2011 and 2026. This includes everything from housing developments, community facilities and employment opportunities to transport, waste management and retailing. When adopted, the LDP will replace the current Adopted Unitary Development Plan (UDP).


 

Current Position

Since the close of the public consultation on the Deposit LDP (February 2012) and accompanying documents, the Council has reviewed the representations received and considered a report on the various options available to the Council as follows:

On 23 January 2013, the Council resolved not to progress any further with the Deposit LDP (February 2012) and to commence work immediately on a replacement Deposit LDP. The Deposit Plan will be based on the Strategy approved in 2010, but will seek to address the main concerns raised during the previous Deposit LDP consultation in 2012, in particular the associated infrastructure required.


 

What happens next?

Subject to the agreement of the revised draft LDP timetable by the Welsh Government, it is anticipated that a Deposit LDP and associated documents will be published for public consultation purposes in Autumn 2013. At this time, interested parties will have the opportunity to comment on the Deposit LDP.


 

Deposit Plan and Accompanying Documents Consultation - 2012

A six week public consultation on the Deposit Plan (February 2012) and the accompanying documents was carried out between 20 February and 2 April 2012.
