Salford City Council is seeking public input for part two of its Local Plan, which aims to shape the city’s future development.
The plan will consider where new housing and employment development should go, the type of housing that should be provided and allocate sites for different types of development.
Residents are being invited to an initial consultation until 24 January 2024, providing feedback on what the plan should include.
Suggestions for potential development sites and important Local Green Spaces are also welcome and Sustainability, health, and equality considerations are being explored, and public comments are encouraged.
Councillor Mike McCusker, Lead Member for Planning, Transport and Sustainable Development, said: “In Salford, we believe that the best way to plan for the future is by involving the community every step of the way. We want our residents to have a real say in shaping the development of our city. That’s why we’re calling on everyone to participate in this crucial consultation process for part two of our Local Plan.
“Our vision is to create a fairer Salford that meets the needs of its residents and provides them with an exceptional quality of life. By engaging in this consultation, you can influence what is included in this plan, which sites are allocated for development and which green spaces should be protected. We are also keen to hear your thoughts on sustainability, health and equality in our planning strategy.
“This is an incredible opportunity for the people of Salford to have their voices heard and shape the city’s future development. Let’s come together and create a Salford that we can all be proud of.”
