Overview

The Bordesley Park AAP covers the area to the east of the City Centre including Alum Rock, Saltley, Bordesley Green, Bordesley Village and Small Heath.

The AAP is a statutory planning document that will guide the future development and regeneration in your area.  It sets out land use proposals and policies which will help to address existing issues and make the most of the area’s assets.  It will support the revitalisation of the area, including a range of new employment opportunities, improved local centres, new housing, and high quality transport connections.  It also promotes a clean, safe and attractive environment. 

The AAP has been prepared by Birmingham City Council alongside a range of stakeholders including residents, businesses and landowners, who have had a significant influence on the Plan’s development.

The Options Report (2011) and Preferred Options (2013) were previously the subject of public consultation.   This version has been informed by comments received in previous rounds of consultation as well as further technical work.

Once adopted, the AAP will from part of the overall planning framework for the city.

Why your views matter

The Pre-Submission version is essentially a final draft version of the AAP, meaning that this is your final opportunity to comment before the Plan is submitted.  We invite your comments on whether the Plan has been prepared in accordance with legal requirements and whether it is sound, namely that it is positively prepared, justified, effective and consistent with national policy.

The Pre-submission Plan, Sustainability Appraisal and a proposals plan can be viewed at the bottom of this page.

What happens next

Following this round of consultation, the Plan will be submitted to the Secretary of State for public examination.  This process will assess the soundness of the Plan.  After this it will be adopted by Birmingham City Council.
