MK City Plan 2050 & MK Strategy 2050

For the latest updates go to this page.

Milton Keynes City Council are working on the development of a new Local Plan entitled the N\MK City Plan 2050 (initially call the New City Plan).

The MK City Plan 2050 will take forward the MK Strategy for 2050 which sets out a bold and ambitious vision for MK over the next 25 years. The MK City Plan 2050 will now set the overall strategy, contain medium to strategic size allocations, and have clear policies for CMK and potentially other key locations.

The MK City Plan 2050 will replace the current Local Plan for Milton Keynes, Plan:MK, which was adopted by the Council at its meeting on the 20 March 2019. Councils have a statutory opportunity to review their local plans every 5 years and MKCC have taken the opportunity presented by this review to consider the plan through to 2050 - Plan:MK is only through to 2031.

A key objective of the MK City Plan 2050 is to achieve the seven key goals in the MK Strategy 2050.

There are a number of steps that need to be followed to produce the plan including public consultation and examination by a Planning Inspector. The timetable for the upcoming steps is shown below.

MKCC have indicated that there will be considerable stakeholder engagement during the development process as well as the formal statutory consultations. HcLL Parish Council plan to take an active role during the plan development, as well as participating in the development process and fulfilling its role as a statutory consultee. We will also do our best to keep residents informed through our various communication channels and welcome any feedback you may have. We also suggest checking the Council’s webpage above, for any ongoing consultations or other evidence gathering activity so that you can make your own personal representations.

Finally, we also plan to work with our neighbouring Parish and Town Councils to enable us to speak as one voice as the plan is being developed over the next two to three years.
