Work is progressing on the preparation of a masterplan for the West of Horsham development, to be consulted on in September 2007. A Reference Group (Terms of Reference Remit) made up of Officers of the Council and representatives of the local community has been established. This group will meet monthly and notes of the meetings or any others relevant to this development are available below:
12 March 2007: Reference Group Note

24 May and 11 June 2007: Reference Group Note
The work of the Reference Group will support that being undertaken by Officers of the Council and the potential developers of the site. The key stages in the timetable for the West of Horsham Masterplan are set out in the Local Development Scheme (LDS), which is a timetable for the production of planning documents. Below is a more detailed timetable for the West of Horsham Masterplan showing both formal and informal stages of consultation.
