Current consultations
Conservation Areas
The Borough Council is currently consulting on revisions to the following Conservation Areas:
Bunny, Normanton on the Wolds and Upper Broughton. Visit the Conservation Areas page for more details.
West Bridgford PSPO
Rushcliffe residents are being encouraged to have their say on the renewal and revision of the Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) that is in place to tackle anti-social behaviours resulting from such matters as street drinking and urinating in public.
We are asking for views on a revised PSPO that seeks to address a small but impacting number of incidents related to the issues in recent years in the central and wider West Bridgford area.
The proposed renewal of the order maintains the restrictions on alcohol consumption in public spaces, prohibitions on urinating and defecating and continues to allow officers to move persons on that are causing a serious disturbance. The revised order builds on the existing order having been used to positive effect since 2017 and a strong deterrent to not flout its rules.
The order is being introduced to assist Police and other authorised Council officers to tackle certain behaviours and allows for the issuing of fixed penalty notices of up to £100 should individuals, for example refuse to give up drink when asked to do so in the designated area.
Residents can have their say by Friday September 5 via an online survey.
Green Belt Assessment Framework
Consultation is taking place on an updated Framework for undertaking Green Belt review, between Thursday August 14 and Friday September 12 2025.
The consultation is being led by Gedling Borough Council on behalf of Broxtowe Borough Council, Nottingham City Council and Rushcliffe Borough Council.
Ashfield District Council and Newark and Sherwood District Council have contributed to the joint methodology but are not consulting on the Framework due to the stage of preparation of their local plans.
Ashfield District Council and Newark and Sherwood District Council will consider Green Belt matters as part of the development of their new local plans.
Further details on the framework and how to respond can be found on Gedling Borough Councils website.
