Consultation process
The resourcing request is not itself a matter
that is subject to consultation. The preparation of a revised Local
Plan that is enabled by a decision on resources will be subject to
wide community, partner and stakeholder consultation in accordance
with the Council's Statement of Community Involvement
(SCI)
Are there any climate change implications?: Not as a direct consequence of the resourcing request. The revised Local Plan to be prepared as a consequence of the process enabled by a resourcing decision will have planning policies that influence the location of development and the environmental performance of development in the district.
