Notice Information

Notice Title

NUN - Strategic Flood Risk Assessment

Notice Description

The Planning Policy team at Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council is responsible for guiding development, through plan-making, for Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough. The Borough's Development Plan currently comprises of the newly adopted Borough Plan Review (2021-2039), which was adopted on 10th December 2025, a Gypsy and Traveller Site Allocations Development Plan Document, the Warwickshire Minerals Local Plan (2018-2032) and the Warwickshire Waste Core Strategy Adopted Local Plan (2013-2028). This contract is for a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) - Level 1. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) (December 2024) requires Local Planning Authorities to produce a SFRA to inform strategic policies, in their Local Plans. In accordance with the NPPF (December 2024) and transitional arrangements within paragraphs 234-237, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council is required to commence an immediate further review now the Borough Plan Review (2021-2039) has been adopted. This further review, in the form of a new Local Plan, will need to address the shortfall between the Borough Plan Review housing requirement of 545 dwellings per annum and the government's new standard method requirement of 756 dwellings per annum. The SFRA - Level 1 will be a vital piece of evidence to enable the selection of the most appropriate locations for growth in the next Local Plan.
