District design code
We have been working with BDP, leading design code consultants, since January 2023 to produce a district design code.
Our draft district design code reflects the varied settings of our district and when approved will guide the aesthetics of new developments without enforcing a specific architectural style.
It aims to set clear guidelines for future building projects, covering aspects such as building height, environmental considerations, and the preservation of our heritage. It encourages thoughtful, high-quality designs that complement our diverse district - from city centres to villages.
Your input has been invaluable throughout the process and we are grateful for everyone's input so far through community workshops, webinars, and previous consultations.
As we come to the end of our consultation period for our new district design code, we are asking residents and businesses to give us their final comments.
How to give your views
- You can view our draft design code online between Monday, 22 April and Monday, 3 June 2024, or you can visit our reception at the District Council House in Frog Lane.
