Emerging local plan

Gedling Borough Council had been working with Nottingham City Council, Broxtowe Borough Council and Rushcliffe Borough Council to prepare the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan. However, following revisions to the National Planning Policy Framework in December 2024, Council on 5^th March 2025 approved Gedling Borough Council’s withdrawal from the preparation of the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan and agreed instead to commence the preparation of the Gedling Local Development Plan which will cover both strategic and non-strategic matters. An updated Local Development Scheme has also been prepared.

A collaborative approach with the Greater Nottingham Planning Partnership will continue, through attendance at Joint Planning Advisory Board meetings and continued use of the shared evidence base in agreement with the Greater Nottingham Planning Partnership as well as the consistent policies that have been agreed through the preparation of the GNSP.

Information on the Greater Nottingham Strategic Plan remains available on the Greater Nottingham Planning Partnership website.
