Strategic Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment
Background
The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) requires local planning authorities to produce a Strategic Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (SHELAA).
The SHELAA (2022) sets out the long list of sites which were nominated to the Council. These sites do not have any planning status. Including them in the SHELAA does not mean that they will be developed in the future.
Latest assessments:
- Strategic Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (SHELAA) main report - April 2022
- Appendix 1 - Housing Sites
- Appendix 2 - Employment Sites
- Appendix 3 - Excluded Sites
- Appendix 4 - Commitments (April 2022)
- Appendix 5 - Employment Commitments

Site Submissions
The Council invited individuals, landowners, developers and site promoters to put forward sites to be considered through the forthcoming update to the Strategic Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (SHELAA). The SHELAA will be a crucial piece of our evidence base for the District Plan Review which is now underway.
Sites can be submitted for a range of uses including, but are not limited to:
- Housing (i.e. affordable housing and self-build and custom housebuilding);
- Specialist housing (i.e. housing for older people; C2);
- Gypsy and Traveller sites;
- Employment; and
- Infrastructure (i.e. community uses, renewable energy).
Any further submission to the SHELAA should be made during the District Plan Regulation 18 consultation (winter 2021/22).
