To present a suite of Interim Planning Guidance Notes to assist the Council in managing development effectively while the new Local Plan is being prepared. The guidance addresses three key areas; developer contributions to community infrastructure, the protection of high-quality agricultural land, and the planning and design considerations for new Houses in Multiple Occupation (including smaller HMOs in Wisbech) to ensure they are located in suitable areas and do not negatively affect the amenity of existing neighbourhoods.
These documents will provide clear expectations for applicants and communities, helping to secure well-planned, sustainable growth that supports local needs, strengthens the local economy, and safeguards the environment.
