Is your Council wasting land?

We show you how well - or badly - our own local authorities perform

 
Preventing unnecessary new building in the countryside is one of CPRE Buckinghamshire's goals.  Re-using previously developed land, usually in towns, for new housing or workspaces, is one way of achieving this. Because local authorities make the decisions about exactly where new development takes place, they have targets for the amount of new housing they  allocate to previously developed land (often known as "brownfield").

Official figures show wide differences in the amount of housing local authorities allocate to brownfield sites.  See our analysis of the five local planning authorities in our area.
