<ul>
<li>Medway Council's emerging Core Strategy will set out the strategy for meeting the Borough's growth requirements, including new homes, employment and community facilities.</li>
<li>Medway Council's Issues and Options paper for the Core Strategy, published on the 27th July 2009, sets out the key issues and challenges facing the Medway area.&nbsp; This paper considers a number of possible locations for new housing development, such as the expansion of Hoo St Werburgh, development in the Capstone Valley, along with development east and west of Rainham.</li>
<li>The Issues and Options paper states that Lodge Hill forms part of the Council's preferred strategy for accommodating new housing and other facilities.</li>
<li>Medway Council's consultation period on the Issues and Options runs from the 27th July to the 18th September 2009.&nbsp; A number of staffed exhibitions have been organised by the Council in August and September.</li>
