As a result of these objections the Council published its Revised Preferred Strategy in January/February 2025. The Council intends to publish its Deposit Plan for consultation in January/February 2026 and this will need to be informed by up-to-date population and household projections based upon the Preferred Growth Scenario.\nThe Council reserves the right to engage the successful Consultant for the provision of additional consultancy, subject to the availability of further funding.  services should further funding become available.
