Local Plan Review

Call For Sites

The easiest way to submit a site is on the consultation portal:

Consultation Portal

We are currently undertaking a call for sites. Open until Friday 24th May, developers, landowners, residents, businesses, parish councils and other stakeholders are invited to put forward suggested sites which might be suitable for development in the district. 

The sites can be for uses including housing, commercial, retail, health care, business, leisure, community facilities, open spaces, wildlife sites or education.

Sites received during this exercise are not automatically marked for development, nor do they gain any special status. They are only being collected and every site will need to be assessed to determine whether they are suitable, available and achievable for development for the updated Local Plan.

Alternatively, you can email localplan@braintree.gov.uk for a hard copy and post it to Planning Policy Team, Causeway House, Bocking End, Braintree, Essex CM7 9HB or visit our offices at Causeway House.

Please provide as much detail and information as possible. A map is an essential part of the submission and can be electronically uploaded along with other supporting files. All submissions will go through a validation process, and we will contact you if we require further information.

We have a specially designed consultation portal for our Planning Policy consultations. You can register at any time to comment on consultations and receive alerts on future consultation launches of planning policy documents, including future Local Plan consultations.
