Greater Easterhouse Strategic Development Framework

Overview

The Glasgow City Development Plan identifies six areas within the City that require a Strategic Development Framework (SDF) in order to coordinate development activity over the short, medium and long term. Greater Easterhouse is one of the six areas identified.

The Draft SDF for Greater Easterhouse sets out:

• A Vision for the area to become a vibrant, inclusive, liveable and well-connected place.
   
• A Spatial Design Strategy which sets out guidance to support planning initiatives and projects, inform the design of proposals, and assist in the determination of planning applications.
   
• An Action Programme to progress planning initiatives.

Consultation

We consulted the public on the Draft Greater Easterhouse SDF over a 10-week period between the 24 November 2023 through to the 5 February 2024. This exercise included three face-to-face sessions in Garthamlock and Central Easterhouse.

Status

The Draft Greater Easterhouse SDF is currently being redrafted to take cognisance of the representations gathered through the consultation process.

The redrafted SDF will be submitted to the Scottish Government for approval prior final adoption as supplementary guidance to the City Development Plan.
