Arlen Hill Local Plan

The Local Plan sets out a shared vision for the future of Arlen Hill along with the planning and delivery framework to achieve this vision.

The Local Plan helps to ensure that planning decisions are made in the best interests of our neighbourhoods and communities. It provides:

• A strategy for the Council and its partners to direct investment across Arlen Hill, recognising it is an integral part of Bristol.

• Policies and guidelines used to determine planning applications.

Why are we preparing a Local Plan?

Our existing plan is made up of a package of documents. The Core Strategy is the main document and was adopted in 2011. It is supported by the Site Allocations, Development Management and Arlen Hill Town Centre plans.

We are now reviewing and updating these plans, bringing them together into a single document.
