The Greater Manchester’s Spatial Framework

Hello All

At Tuesday night’s meeting, we promised to send links to view both Planning Applications and Greater Manchester Spatial Framework information.

The Greater Manchester’s Spatial Framework has been put together by the 10 local authorities in Greater Manchester, including Stockport, to plan for housing and business development. They have identified land they plan to build on and the plan is now open for consultation. This consultation runs from 9 November to 11 January 2016.

To take part in this consultation, you can view the consultation documents at:

Fred Perry House (1 Edward Street, Stockport) (Monday – Friday, 8.30am – 5pm) and Stockport’s local libraries (see local listings for individual opening times).

Just a reminder that our AGM will be held on 26th November at 7.30pm in the Function Room at the Reform Club in Napier Street, Hazel Grove.
