Documents which make up the Local Plan

Putting together a Local Plan is a lengthy and complex process, and involves the gathering of lots of evidence, analysis, cooperation with other statutory bodies, and consultation.

Together, these documents set out detailed policies and specific proposals for guiding development in the district.

The evidence and background studies inform day-to-day planning applications.

New evidence is being gathered as part of the new Local Plan.
