Gedling Borough Council has been awarded £160,000 by the UK Government’s Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities to participate in the Design Code Pathfinder Programme, to create a ‘design code’ and encourage communities to have their say on how the borough looks, in terms of design.
As part of the project, a public consultation is taking place asking residents and local businesses to say what they like, what they dislike and what they would change about the visual design of Gedling’s streets, buildings and public spaces. People can comment, using an online interactive map, about areas that they think are well designed or areas that need improvement. They can upload photos and stay up to date with the process from start to completion by visiting www.placegedling.co.uk. This is a great opportunity to influence the design of any new development in the village. So please have your say.
