Emerging Local Plan for Derby (LPD)
Consultation
An eight-week consultation on the Draft Local Plan for Derby has now ended, and we are now processing the representations. Where necessary, we will be making amendments to the Draft Local Plan for Derby.
While the consultation has closed, the documents listed are still available to examine.
The Draft Local Plan was written before the recent publication of the proposed National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) reforms, which were published on the 16 December 2025. A decision on how to adapt the plan in light of the proposed changes will be made in the coming months.
We envisage that the next consultation on the Local Plan will be in the summer of 2026.
