Town Centre and Business Zones Plan - A plan covering existing and new business zones of Uppingham and the town centre. The UTC&BZ Plan was prepared to complement the town's original Neighbourhood Plan. The Plan proposes a new joint blue light initiative, additional housing and the creation of an Uppingham Virtual High Street. See the plan at www.uppinghamneighbourhoodplan.info
Uppingham Neighbourhood Plan (First Edition) - The Plan passed successfully through its referendum on July 10th 2014. After a long legal action reaching all the way to the Supreme Court the plan was made by Rutland County Council on January 11th 2016. Read the Plan at www.uppinghamneighbourhoodplan.info
Updating the Neighbourhood and Local Plans - The updated Uppingham Neighbourhood Plan is now under review by its External Examiner who has asked for more work to be undertaken before it is submitted to a public ballot in late 2024. Rutland County Council has now completed public consultation on its draft Local Plan. See the CPRE response above following consultation with local parishes. The updated plan is expected to be published in the autumn of 2024.
