Residents are invited to help finalise a planning document, designed to ensure sustainability and tackling climate change are fully considered in the Royal Borough’s future growth and development.

RBWM is holding a six-week consultation, until midnight on Monday 27 November, on the draft of our Sustainability Supplementary Planning Document (SPD).

The SPD aims to shape new development in the direction of net zero carbon, protect and enhance the natural environment, drive carbon reductions in the borough and deliver wider climate change mitigations and adaptations. A key action within the council’s Environment and Climate Strategy, it will guide developers in preparing their planning applications and will be considered in planning decisions and appeals.

How can you get involved?

Residents can read the draft SPD document and leave comments by completing the online feedback form. To get involved in the consultation, attend one of the remaining sessions:

• Wednesday 8 November, 6pm to 7.30pm – Online webinar via Microsoft Teams. The link for joining will be added to our website next week
• Tuesday 14 November, 2pm to 6.30pm – Windsor Library drop-in event..
