Local plan consultation drop-in session
Palmers Green Library, Broomfield Lane, N13 4EY
A new Local Plan for Enfield 2018 - 2036
We are working on a new Local Plan to shape how Enfield is developed in the future. The key challenges we need to address are:
- ensuring there is enough housing to meet everyone’s needs
- creating better employment opportunities and promoting economic growth
- reviewing infrastructure and community facilities
- the future role of our town centres
- creating places that promote health and wellbeing
- ensuring development is high quality and protects the environment
New consultation
We are now revisiting the issues and options stage carried out in 2015. The draft new Local Plan 2036 (PDF) (LP2036) is the first of two formal stages of consultation before it is submitted for independent examination in 2020. A summary draft new Local Plan 2036 (PDF) is also available.
This draft plan sets out options for development over the next 15 years through ‘good growth’ principles, as endorsed by the Mayor of London. These principles aim to ensure that growth delivers:
- appropriate new social and community infrastructure
- a range of housing types
- new schools
- improved health facilities
- higher standard of wellbeing and quality of life
- improvements to open spaces
- employment opportunities
- benefits of regeneration and investment for all residents
We are also consulting on a new Heritage Strategy 'Making Enfield'. This strategy embraces the growth agenda and celebrates Enfield’s heritage in realising its ambitions and securing quality places.
