The Nottingham Local Plan November 2005 adoption and Publication:
The Nottingham Local Plan Review was adopted by Nottingham City Council on 28th November 2005. It is now called the ‘Nottingham Local Plan’.  A notice of adoption was advertised in the London Gazette and the Nottingham Evening Post on 2nd December, and on 9th December, 2005, following which a legal challenge was submitted to the High Court.  This challenge has now been resolved.  The text of the Nottingham Local Plan and  the updated proposals map can be downloaded by clicking on the links below.  Alternatively all documents can  be viewed at the City Council's City Development Department, Exchange Buildings, Smithy Row, Nottingham, NG1 2BS.

Hard copies of the plan are avialable for purchase at a price of £45.00 plus £3.00 postage and packing for both the plan and proposals maps, the proposals maps are available separately at a price of £15.00 plus £1.00 postage and packing please contact Lisa Roche on the details at the bottom of this page to order a copy.

Updated Sites of Interest for Nature Conservation:
Sites of Interest for Nature Conservation (SINCs) are determined independently of the Local Plan. They are identified by the Nottingham Biological and Geological Records Centre (NBGRC) using criteria set by an independent panel of experts (the SINC Panel).  Data is collected from museum field surveyors and local and national expert naturalists and the designation is made by the SINC Panel.

The Nottingham Local Plan Proposals Map shows the Biological and Geological SINCs as identified at the time of the Revised Deposit Draft of the Nottingham Local Plan Review (Jan 2003) which formed the basis for the public inquiry, consideration by the Planning Inspector and adoption by the City Council.

Since then a significant review of the SINCs in Nottingham City has taken place, superseding some of the information shown on the Proposals Map.  

As the designation of SINCs is not related to the timescale of the planning process, and as the Local Plan Proposals Map cannot be updated, there is a need to separately identify the current extent of SINCs within Nottingham City.

The City Council’s online mapping system (NOMAD), displays the most up to date representation of the SINCs in Nottingham and the date these were last updated can be obtained through the system.  Click here to link to NOMAD

Addendum to the Nottingham Local Plan:
Since the publication of the Local Plan it has been identified that there was an error on the proposals map south sheet.  The boundary of the Sneinton Conservation Area as shown on the proposals map south sheet is incorrect.  The true boundary of the Sneinton Conservation Area is as shown on the addendum below, which should be read in conjunction with the plan.
