Early engagement

As an early stage in the preparation of the Local Plan, we began the process of information gathering and we invited comments on what the Local Plan ought to contain, the scope of the Integrated Assessment and issued a Call for Sites over a six-week period from 25 March to 6 May 2024.  The comments received during this stage have all been considered as part of the preparation of the draft Local Plan and the supporting Integrated Assessment.
