Claremont and Weaste Neighbourhood Plan
Salford City Council has prepared a Neighbourhood Plan for the Claremont and Weaste area. The plan covers the Claremont Weaste Community Committee area covering the Claremont Ward and Weaste & Seedley Ward.
The Neighbourhood Plan sets out a shared vision for the area to guide its future development. The plan will assist in co-coordinating regeneration activity locally and secure the future stability of the area. The Neighbourhood Plan achieves this by:
- Translating a range of city-wide policies and initiatives to the local level;
- Influencing future actions of Salford City Council and its partners;
- Providing guidance for planning decisions;
- Reflecting local comments and priorities; and
- Highlighting areas for potential investment.
Whilst the Neighbourhood Plan will be non statutory, it is explicitly set within the planning policy framework provided by Regional Spatial Strategy and the adopted Unitary Development Plan for Salford. The adopted Neighbourhood Plan will specifically have the status of an “approved regeneration strategy” for the purposes of policy E5 of the UDP.

In preparing the Neighbourhood Plan the City Council has been informed by an Advisory Group comprising elected members, community representatives and the Neighbourhood manager. Public consultation on the document took place from Friday 25 January 2008 until 4.30pm on Thursday 6 March 2008.
