Tell us how you want Cornwall to grow.
Cornwall has a housing crisis. There are more than 21,000 households on our Homechoice housing register looking for an affordable home. House prices and private rents are high compared to local wages, making it difficult for some people who work here to find an affordable place to live and difficult for organisations like the NHS to recruit the staff that they need. With Government housing targets meaning we will need to build more homes, we need to plan ahead to ensure that the growth and development of new homes are high quality and help maintain our distinctive landscapes, wildlife, heritage and culture.
This means planning for the homes and environment that we will need. This sort of change can be planned for by developing a new Local Plan (a document that creates a vision and policies for where development should and should not go) lasting to 2050.
The Local Plan will set out where new homes should be built and the areas that should be protected from development. It can also set out the types of homes and business space that Cornwall needs. From cycle paths and schools to sustainable drainage, we’ll identify the infrastructure that should be delivered alongside new homes and set policies for design, energy efficiency, green space and connectivity.
Before we start developing that plan, we want to give all of our residents and communities the opportunity to tell us what they want growth to deliver and where homes should be built so that we can plan for positive change across all of our places. Doing this now means that we can reflect your wider ambitions and concerns in our plans and policies.
We’ll also be asking all town and parish councils to tell us about their priorities for growth through new Neighbourhood Priority Statements [link] . We will share the local responses from this survey with town and parish councils so they can help inform these Statements.
Help us to create a positive plan for growth that works for Cornwall and delivers a future that is better for us all by telling us about what matters to you.
