Have your say on the future of local councils in Surrey

Take part in a landmark Government consultation on proposals to replace Surrey's current councils with up to three larger authorities. We support a three unitary approach - Find out more and read our consultation question guide.

Join us for a special online engagement session hosted by the Leaders of Guildford and Waverley Borough Councils on Thursday 3 July from 7pm to 8pm via Microsoft Teams. We'll explain what Local Government Reorganisation is, outline the different options being considered, and show you how to get involved. Sign up for the session (opens new window).

Marketing for loss of employment and retail uses

Use our marketing information pack (PDF, 190 KB) if you're making a planning application which will lead to either:

  • loss of employment
  • loss of space used for retail

We're currently preparing a Marketing Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). This will explain exactly what marketing evidence you need to provide, if our Local Plan asks for it.

Use the pack before we adopt the SPD. It helps you meet existing requirements of the Local Plan: strategy and sites. It does not introduce new policy requirements.
