Bassetlaw District Council is carrying out a ‘Call for Sites’ to give landowners, developers, site promoters and organisations an opportunity to submit sites they want to be considered for development in the district in the future.
Submissions can be for a range of new development including for all types of housing, businesses, renewable energy or nature recovery, community facilities and open space.
This will not affect or replace the council’s adopted Local Plan, which already sets out where housing and other developments are allowed to be built, and which areas should be protected in the district over the next 13 years.
Cllr Steve Scotthorne, cabinet member for identity, planning and place, said: “The Call for Sites is a valuable tool to ensure that all possible sites across the district are assessed for their potential for development.
“Anyone can suggest a site to us, and I would encourage everyone to get involved.”
The Council will include all submitted sites in the Land Availability Assessment and will assess if they are suitable for development.
The Call for Sites and site assessment process does not indicate that planning permission will be granted or suggest that sites are suitable for allocating in any future Local Plan.
The 12-week engagement runs from 12th June to 4th September 2025.
