Call for Sites Including Brownfield Land Register 

In January 2018 we issued a Call for Sites inviting landowners, agents and developers to put forward sites for potential development, including sites for the Brownfield Land Register and Local Green Spaces.

Following this, in December 2018, the 2018 Strategic Housing and Employment Land Availability Assessment (SHELAA) and subsequently the 2019 Supplementary Report were published, which forms part of the evidence base for the Local Plan 2020-2040 of Stafford Borough. 

Since publication of the SHELAA 2021 Update and SHELAA 2022 Update further sites have been put forward. These were included in the SHELAA 2023 Update. 

We will continue to accept new sites for inclusion in subsequent SHELAA updates, with the next version due to be published later in 2024. All submitted sites will continue to be considered through the Local Plan process.

Please note: Sites submitted before 5pm on Thursday 31 October will be included in the 2024 Update. Any site submitted after this date will be included in the next update of the SHELAA which will be published in 2025.

Brownfield Land Register 

The Council is required by Government to produce a Brownfield Land Register by 31 December each year showing a list of previously developed sites that are available and potentially suitable for development across the Borough.
