Consultation on the draft Local Plan

Consultation on a new draft Local Plan will take place between Monday 20 June and Sunday 14 August 2022.

The Local Plan will be used for assessing all planning applications and development proposals in South Tyneside in future years.

This is your chance to have your say about how your area will look and develop in the future.

As part of the draft Local Plan consultation, we are also consulting on a Sustainability Appraisal and a Habitats Regulation Assessment. 

Our guide to the Local Plan explains more about the Local Plan and provides answers to some of the key questions you may have about it.

We have also organised some information sessions where you can find out more.
