Prepare to give your views when the Draft Local Plan Consultation launches

Epsom & Ewell’s Local Plan will set the vision and framework for future development in the borough. Our public consultation on the Draft Local Plan (Regulation 18) goes live on Wednesday 1 February and runs for six weeks.

It focuses on supporting businesses, creating jobs, infrastructure improvements, environmental protection and leisure development, alongside sites for new homes including affordable accommodation. 

It is really important that these big decisions are informed by those who live, work, visit, shop or study in Epsom & Ewell. Responses we receive through the consultation will be critical in shaping the Local Plan and development in the borough up to 2040.

You can find out more about why it’s so important we progress with our Local Plan, and how you can have your say, at https://www.epsom-ewell.gov.uk/residents/planning/planning-policy/epsom-and-ewell-local-plan/emerging-new-local-plan.

Once the consultation is live, you will be able to comment on the Draft Local Plan via our website. There will also be information and the opportunity to respond in local libraries. If you want to find out more about the Local Plan, there are local community events being organised and more information will be on our website.
