| Richard Wood - Planning Policy Manager SMBC |
At the speaker meeting on 24th May 2016 Richard Wood, Planning Policy Manager for Stockport MBC, spoke about the Greater Manchester Spacial Framework and what it could mean for Marple.
Richard is involved in developing the Greater Manchester Spacial Framework (GMSF) policy and currently spends half of his working week in this area of planning.
The GMSF brings together the 10 authorities of Greater Manchester to identify future housing and land requirements. A statutory joint Development Plan will be produced to manage the supply of land in Greater Manchester over the next 20 years. Richard explained that the plan is still in its early stages. The situation will become clearer once the housing allocations to the 10 authorities has been agreed. However, he identified several problem areas for future development in Marple including transport, topography, heritage and ecology.
