To quote the Council's own words...

"As local planning authority, Lewes District Council needs to take a lead in setting a framework for the future development of this area, which best meets local needs.  This will help carry forward work on the review of planning policies through the Local Development Framework and provide an up to date basis for consideration of any future planning applications for the site.

Work by the Council also provides a process by which other key stakeholders and the likely developer can engage with each other and get involved in helping to shape the future of the area.  Therefore, the Council is proposing to develop a “Planning Vision for the North Street area”, which will set out a vision for the future of the area together with a set of development objectives by which the planning system will aim to deliver the vision."

North St Vision is where we will post the stakeholders' visions, reports on the workshops etc along with a broad and regularly updated range of material. We hope you will find it helpful, not only in forming your own vision, but also appraising Angel Property’s application when it is submitted later this year.
