Development Plan Document 1 (DPD1) - Core Strategy Preferred Options (2006) consultation

(Please note this consultation is now classified as part of the Issues and Options stage)

(June 2006 to July 2006)
This stage followed the Issues and Options consultation held in 2005 in the preparation of the Core Strategy. The consultation document set out options for the broad distribution of new development and key policies to deliver development and safeguard the environment. It was supported by a Sustainability Appraisal which provided information on the anticipated environmental, economic and social impacts of the options and policies.

The consultation took place between 08.45 on 12th June 2006 and 16.45 on 21st July 2006. We asked people to give us their views about how we should accommodate new development across Kirklees over the next 15 years in our LDF core strategy. We published a feedback report in August 2006 setting out the responses we received. We will give careful consideration to what was said in drafting the next document for consultation. If you would like to be added to our mailing list to be informed of future consultations, please ring 01484 221627 or email DPI@kirklees.gov.uk with your contact details.
