An ambitious plan for what Plymouth and South West Devon could be like in 2034 covering important issues like health, transport, homes, jobs and the economy, green spaces and infrastructure is to be considered by three councils next week.
The Plymouth and South West Devon Joint Local Plan is going to the Full Council in each local authority on the following days:
Urban living could return to Plymouth city centre as part of a move to inject people and a fresh feel into the heart of the city.

People across Plymouth are being asked where new homes could be built as the next phase of the Plymouth Plan gets underway.
Residents are being asked to take a good look at their own neighbourhood, as well as the city as a whole, to look at what land could be set aside for homes, for offices and work units and which green spaces they feel need to be improved or protected.
