The purpose of the planning system is to ensure that, as far as possible, development takes place in a way that is of greatest benefit to the local community.
 The Core Strategy is where the key strategic decisions and most difficult choices will be made about Blackpool’s future development. It is the land use or spatial expression of the Council’s wider Sustainable Community Strategy which seeks to create a framework for a more prosperous and healthier Blackpool.
In particular, it will explain how proposed levels of employment and housing growth may be accommodated and how other retail, resort and other development needs may be met in the next 15-20 years.
This “Core Strategy” Issues and Options document has been prepared to seek your views as a first step towards providing a new development strategy, planning ahead to meet Blackpool’s needs to 2025 and beyond.
