The Local Plan (adopted in July 2017) sets out plans to develop Canterbury district until 2031. We use it to help make planning decisions for the area.
It includes:
- housing, employment, infrastructure, and open space development
- major developments like Mountfield Park
- policies to protect and improve the environment
- a proposals map showing the allocated areas for development
