Local Plan Timetable
At the Full Council meeting on the 4 December 2024, Members agreed the Local Development Scheme (LDS) (PDF 215KB) . The LDS is the formal document that sets out the timetable for the Council's Local Plan Review and states that a draft Plan Regulation 18 consultation will be carried out in the fourth quarter of 2025, with a Regulation 19 pre-submission consultation in the second quarter of 2026, with submission of the Council's Local Plan, at the end of the fourth quarter in 2026.

Statement of Community Involvement
Our adopted Statement of Community Involvement sets out how we are going to consult and engage you. There will be various opportunities for you to get involved and over time we will be expanding our website to include these further activities and any evidence that we will have completed.
In February 2021 we published an addendum to the Statement of Community Involvement to reflect the Covid 19 Pandemic situation. More information can be found on the Statement of Community Involvement page.
