The Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) sets out Council policy for consultation on the Local Plan, Supplementary Planning Documents, Neighbourhood Plans and planning applications.
Local Plan Review
The Council will review its local plan (i.e. assess whether it needs updating) following expected changes to planning legislation (Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill) and associated updates to national policy and guidance. See Cabinet 4th November 2021 Item 73.
Also see Local Development Scheme: Ninth Revision and a commentary on the Local Development Scheme in section 7 of the Authority Monitoring Report 2022.
Shapley Heath Garden Community Project
As part of the Government’s Garden Communities Programme, the Council explored the opportunity for a new community at Shapley Heath. This project has now concluded (see Cabinet minutes 4th November Item 73). We will take the learning into consideration when we prepare the next local plan when the reasonable alternatives for significant housing growth will be considered.
National Planning Policy
National planning policies for England are set out by the government in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). The NPPF is a material consideration in the determination of planning applications.
