This consultation is aimed at understanding how everyday Glasgow works and will help us create a new City Development Plan that leads to a better city experience as well as addressing the big issues we face like tackling climate change, helping to create more opportunities to work and improving health and wellbeing. We want to hear from all age groups including from younger people, and all backgrounds, circumstances, and locations so the Plan can reflect Glasgow’s diverse population and neighbourhoods.

The Plan will also guide where we want new development to happen in order to make Glasgow a more healthy, liveable, and successful place. Things like the location of new housing and businesses, how we can improve our town centres or re-use vacant land and protect our important built and natural assets.

We hope to get an understanding of how our different places need to be looked at in the new Plan. Your opinions will form an important part of the Plan’s evidence base which means it is responsive to our communities’ views and ideas.

A multi-agency project group has developed the Glasgow City Food Plan as a framework for the city. The plan aims to tackle a range of environmental, health and well being challenges by improving the food system. The plan describes issues and challenges for a number of themes and identifies early actions . We are consulting on the plan until the end of December 2020 through this consultation and through on line events that will be published on Glasgow Food Policy Partnerships website.

The City Council has published a consultative draft Glasgow North Strategic Development Framework (SDF). The SDF seeks to put the public at the heart of spatial planning, enabling local people to get involved in the planning issues affecting their area. The SDF provides guidance to inform more local planning initiatives and emerging development proposals across the area, over a 30-year period.  As part of the consultation process, the Council would welcome the public’s comments on any of the issues, principles or potential planning projects set out in the SDF. Responses can be made by completing the online survey or by emailing comments to SDFconsultation@glasgow.gov.uk

As part of Glasgow City Council’s work on developing a set of new transport plans for the City, covering the city as a whole, the city centre and local neighbourhoods, the public and stakeholders are invited to participate in a Public Conversation on transport issues in Glasgow.

Running for 6 weeks, this public engagement exercise aims to gather views on the problems we need to tackle, the kind of future transport system we want in Glasgow, and the outcomes we want to work towards. The results of this engagement exercise will inform the next stages of developing each Plan in further detail, including the types of solutions and investment decisions we need to make.

The Glasgow Begging Strategy & Action Plan has been designed to respond to the complex and multifaceted issue of begging within the city through innovative, integrated partnership working to deliver sustainable solutions and interventions.
