Shenley Park Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) consultation

Overview

We want your views on the draft Shenley Park Supplementary Planning Document.

Supplementary planning documents provide guidance on policies in the adopted local plans in Buckinghamshire and should be read in conjunction with the local plan to which they relate.

They are a material consideration when determining planning applications.

Shenley Park Supplementary Planning Document

Shenley Park is a site allocated in the Vale of Aylesbury Local Plan.

This document sets out our plans to create “an exemplar development, of regional significance, which will be a great place to live, work and grow”.

• multi-functional green infrastructure
• mixed use local centre
