Nottingham Core Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment

The Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment is an annual review of potential housing sites. Its purpose is to help us understand where and when housing could be built in the future.

Sites in the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment are assessed against a range of criteria to establish their suitability, availability and achievability for development. The results of the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment feed into other work that we do.

The assessment includes land that has come forward from a range of sources, including sites that have already been granted planning permission and sites that have been put forward by landowners and developers.

It is important to note that inclusion in the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment process does not in itself allow for development to occur on site and that planning permission must still be granted. Some of the sites in the assessment can only come forward if planning policy is changed. Decisions to change planning policy are taken through the Local Development Framework process and will be subject to widespread public consultation.

2011 Review

Assessments for sites included in the 2011 SHLAA Review have been finalised. Site reports can be accessed via the link below. A new tool has been developed in partnership with other local authorities. From this Tool you will be able to search and access the assessments from all the sites in Gedling Borough.
