Events are being held in North Cardiff next month (March) as part of the consultation on the city's new development plan.
Cardiff Council's new plan aims to create over 32,300 new jobs and 26,400 new homes by 2036.
An eight-week consultation began yesterday (18 February) and will run until 15 April.
Two local in-person events are planned in our area:
Thursday 13 March - 6pm to 8pm Llanishen High School, Heol Hir, CF14 5YL.
You need to book for this event here.
Thursday 27 March - 2pm to 4pm - Whitchurch Hub, Park Road, CF14 7XA.
This is a drop-in event, and there's no need to book.
There are also online events on Wednesday 5 March - 12pm to 2pm and
Monday 7 April - 6pm to 8pm. You need to book on to these events here.
Some highlights of the ‘deposit plan':
Creating 32,300 new jobs and 26,400 new homes to cater to the city's population growth.
Homes: As well as sites with existing planning permission or earmarked for development, new houses on brownfield sites in the city centre, Cardiff Docks, and International Sports Village. This will mean a 50:50 split between greenfield and brownfield sites, and 25% of new homes will be affordable.
Jobs: Bringing forward new sites in the Cardiff Central Enterprise Zone, Roath Basin, North of Junction 33, North-West Cardiff, Cardiff Parkway, and other locations.
Sustainable neighbourhoods: Ensuring that developments create safe, inclusive, accessible, and healthy environments, and include community facilities.
Transport: Aiming for 75% of all journeys to be made by foot, cycling, or public transport by 2030 by investing in infrastructure to make sustainable travel more attractive.
Climate change: Low-carbon developments and energy-efficient buildings, increasing renewable energy supply, and preventing development in flood-risk areas.
Biodiversity: Ensuring development recognises the importance of green infrastructure and soils, achieves a net gain in biodiversity and promotes ecosystem resilience.
Environment: Protecting greenfield sites north of the M4 and other countryside areas across the city through designation of a Green Wedge and Special Landscape Areas and protecting important open spaces and historic and cultural assets.
Cardiff Council cabinet member Dan De'Ath said: "Creating new jobs and new homes in a sustainable way is a priority for this administration. The new ‘Deposit Plan' is a realistic yet optimistic vision for how Cardiff will develop over the next 11 years. This is an LDP [local development plan] for growth, but not unregulated growth."
Following this consultation, the representations made will be submitted to the Welsh Government together with the Deposit Plan later this year for consideration by an independent planning inspector.
