Rossendale New Local Plan

What is a Local Plan?

The Local Plan sets out the vision for how Rossendale will be developed over the next 15 years, in line with national policy and legislation. We must identify land to meet the housing, community, infrastructure and employment needs of the next 15 years. It will protect land for open space, biodiversity and sport.

The Local Plan will be examined by an independent Planning Inspector, and used to determine planning applications in Rossendale.
