Stockport Council’s Executive has approved a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) for the redevelopment of Woodford Aerodrome.
More than 700 comments were received on the draft SPD, which will provide guidance for the future of the site and ensure the delivery of a development that is economically, socially and environmentally sustainable.
The SPD will now be adopted as part of Stockport’s Local Development Framework.
Councillor Iain Roberts, Executive Member for Economic Development and Regeneration at Stockport Council, said: “I’d like to thank everyone who commented on the SPD, including the hundreds of Woodford residents who had their say.
“The Woodford Aerodrome Supplementary Planning Document interprets existing planning policy and will provide further guidance to developers. Next steps are likely to include the landowners making a planning application – we’re looking forward to seeing how the vision laid out in the SPD is reflected in this.”
