NEWARK & SHERWOOD ALLOCATIONS AND DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT

DEVELOPMENT PLAN DOCUMENT

In November 2011 Southwell Civic Society responded to a public consultation by Newark and Sherwood District Council on their Allocations and Development Management Options Report. This report included recommendations for the allocation of land for residential and commercial development in Southwell up to 2026. Southwell Civic Society proposed alternative allocations that would avoid some of the environmentally damaging development that would result from the District Council's allocations.
