In this section you can find out more about what the Local Plan currently contains, and the policies and considerations that will affect whether a proposal can be granted permission.

Local Development Scheme

The Local Development Scheme tells you how we prepare our plans and what planning documents we will publish in the coming years. The current LDS was approved by councillors at the Cabinet meeting on 22 November 2017.

Statement of Community Involvement

The Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) (July 2015) explains how we will engage with local and statutory stakeholders to prepare local planning documents and carry out development management functions.
