The public consultation on the Local Plan post-examination hearing main modifications closed at 5pm on Friday 5 October

The main modifications have necessitated a number of modifications to the policies maps published during the preparation of the Local Plan. We have published the revised policies maps, together with a schedule of the changes.

Please note, while representations on the revised policies maps can be made during the public consultation, the representations cannot be considered by the Planning Inspector due to the fact the policies maps do not form part of the development plan.
