Have your say on future

A NEW planning system is being introduced in Chesterfield which aims to attract more jobs and provide space for more houses in the town.

The Local Development Framework will set out a blueprint for development in the borough over the next 20 years.

The council is now inviting views on how the town should reduce energy consumption, protect against flooding, deal with congestion, build affordable housing, increase retail and industrial opportunities, and redevelop land.

To add to the debate log on to www.chesterfield.gov.uk and follow the link to the ‘Consultation - Your Views Count’ page, or call 01246 345 349 for a questionnaire. Closing date is October 12.
