Statement of Community Involvement

A key objective of the new planning system is to strengthen community involvement. The Statement of Community Involvement is an integral part of the Local Development Framework. It sets out how we will involve you in the preparation of Local Development Documents. It also explains how you can get involved in the decision-making process on planning applications.

The Statement of Community Involvement was adopted on 14 June 2006 following extensive community involvement and an independent examination.
