Work is underway on the Castle Point Plan. The Castle Point Plan will guide development in Castle Point up until 2050. It will provide a framework to inform decision making, with local communities having a strong voice in determining what will happen where they live.
Initial engagement aimed at finding out what residents’ value most about where they live and what they want to see changed is currently underway.
The agreed timetable for the preparation of the Castle Point Plan is set out below. Details are published within the approved Local Development Scheme 2022 [pdf] 213KB
