Sutton is a well connected, attractive borough in South West London that has a reputation for excellent schools, Green Flag award-winning green and leafy open spaces, and an industrial heritage along the River Wandle. Our Local Plan concentrates new housing in our town and district centres, and seeks to preserve the heritage assets and village feel of parts of the borough. The Council is leading regeneration in Sutton town centre, including a new Civic Hub, new site for Sutton College and new council housing. Sutton's priority is high quality, well-designed development that meets the highest sustainability credentials and secures affordable housing. Infrastructure provision is of high priority to our residents. <br><br> Situated in Zone 5, Sutton is less than 30 minutes by train from central London, and south and south west London are easily accessible by public transport.

We have a fully staffed and qualified building control team. <br><br> Our Local Plan is being updated and will help position Sutton as a key player in attracting inward investment, jobs for our residents and STEM opportunities for our young people in the longer term. We want to be a major player in the Mayor of London's and Government's growth agenda. Planning will be key in shaping the Council's arguments for more investment in Sutton, especially in public transport improvements. We know our residents care about infrastructure alongside development, and our use of s106 and Community Infrastructure Levy from major developments will help ensure they feel and see the benefits too. <br><br> Our new Local Plan will continue to concentrate new housing in our town and district centres and by diversifying planning uses we will boost footfall and vitality, alongside protecting the distinctive character and heritage of the borough.

Further consented developments are in the pipeline in Throwley Way and Lodge Place, as well as future proposals for the reuse of Quadrant House and St Nicholas House, along with a scheme to relocate Sutton College to a council-owned site in the High Street to create a 'Northern Gateway' and ensure regeneration of this end of the high street. <br><br> Our recent LGA Corporate Peer Challenge affirmed us as an organisation that has a strong track record of delivery and many achievements to celebrate. The LGA found that staff consistently described Sutton as \"friendly, welcoming and focused on communities\".
