Test Valley Borough Local Plan 2006
Foreword
Other links in the Interactive Local Plan:
The Borough Local Plan is an important document for the future
of the area in which we live, work and visit. It provides the planning
framework for the Borough against which development proposals will
be considered and includes proposals for housing, employment, transport,
shopping, leisure and community facilities to meet the needs of
a growing community.
The Council has sought to balance the provision of new development
with the conservation of the environment and the assets which provide
for the Borough's high quality of life. The plan includes a number
of policies to ensure that these are protected and that sustainable
development is achieved.
The plan is the culmination of extensive public consultation over
several years and having taken account of the views expressed, it
sets the context for planning the Borough's future.
