Green Paper
Purpose of consultation To invite comments on Island Plan Review
Type of consultation Written Paper
Closing date for consultation 2nd October 2008
Summary of issues or questions to consider
This Green Paper aims to help focus discussion on the strategic planning issues and future choices for Jersey. It will help to prepare a new Island Plan.
This consultation is part of a dialogue with all those who have an interest in the island. It sets out a range of difficult planning issues and then appraises – that is tests and probes - a range of choices or options, for planning policy. This highlighting of issues is in no way a decision about what options for policy might eventually be taken forward. That depends upon the outcome of this consultation and how it informs the States' decision making
This Green Paper is an early, but key opportunity, to think about the Island, it's places and how they should be shaped in the future; about where you live or work; and about areas and features you care about. It is important that the Island community has an opportunity to assess potential policy responses and development proposals at an early stage, and before any final decisions are taken.
This Green Paper attempts to identify and set out, in concise detail, the key planning issues facing the Island: it is relatively long because the new Island Plan, that will be the outcome of this whole process, needs to be backed up by sufficient and robust evidence and consultation to ensure that it meets the tests against which an independent inspector will consider it. We intend to achieve this outcome by undertaking this consultation and appraisal of the main potential options.
