Date

Former Fire Station and Police Station, Bletchley Development Brief - Consultation Draft (PDF) 

Milton Keynes Council is consulting on a Draft Development Brief for the Former Fire and Police Station site located off Sherwood Drive, Bletchley.

This 1.25 ha site is owned by Milton Keynes Development Partnership and its redevelopment forms part of the MK: Bletchley & Fenny Stratford Town Deal programme.

The Draft Brief provides an overview of the planning policies affecting the site, notably within Plan:MK (adopted 2019) and the West Bletchley Neighbourhood Plan (made 2019), together with design principles to promote the submission of a high-quality redevelopment proposal. The Brief also references the Central Bletchley Urban Design Framework Supplementary Planning Document (adopted 2022) which also covers the site.

Although not a formal planning document, the Final Brief will, following approval, potentially, be considered a material consideration in the determination of planning applications submitted to the Council.
