Rushcliffe Borough Council want to hear your views on the design of buildings and places within Rushcliffe

Rushcliffe Borough Council is preparing an Authority-wide Design Code for the borough and, for this, we are undertaking a first round of public consultation.

The Design Code will set out what is expected in terms of the quality and design standards for new developments. Developments could be new housing on small or large sites, the conversion of existing buildings or small domestic extensions.

The consultation is asking for your views on what topics, types of development and places the Design Code should focus on. The consultation will run until Thursday 29 February 2024.

As part of the consultation, we want to know about the places in Rushcliffe you like and which you think are well designed. Can you give an example of a building or place in Rushcliffe which you like, and why? Can you also give an example of a building or place in Rushcliffe which you do not like, and why?

Details about the Design Code and how to respond to the consultation are on the Council’s website and also on the online community engagement platform for the Design Code. Here you will be able to learn more about the Design Code, sign up for email alerts, provide your comments and have your say as the Design Code progresses over the coming year.
