Draft New Camden Local Plan
The Council published the Camden Local Plan Proposed Submission Draft for consultation from 1 May to the 27 June 2025.
The consultation on the Camden Local Plan Proposed Submission Draft is now closed and officers are reviewing the responses received.
The Camden Local Plan Proposed Submission Draft sets out the Council’s vision for future development in Camden for the next 15 years and includes the planning policies and site allocations to help achieve this. It identifies how many new homes and jobs are needed to support Camden's population, and where and how they should be provided. The Local Plan also has an important role in shaping how Camden's places look and feel, promoting inclusion, reducing inequality, enhancing the environment, tackling climate change and securing sustainable neighbourhoods.
