Following last year’s consultation on the draft local plan, we’ve taken on board people’s comments and now consider the plan is ready to submit the Secretary of State.
In accordance with regulation 19 of the local planning regulations 2012, we are required to seek the views of the community on whether this is a sound and legally compliant local plan.
The consultation will run from Friday 22 February 2019 for 6 weeks. The Submission deadline for commenting on the consultation documents is 5pm on Friday 5 April 2019.
Full details on the local plan and information on how to respond can be found on the consultation webpage:

We are holding consultation events during March 2019 where you can come along to find out more about the plan or ask questions.
