Statement of Community Involvement

SCI Cover lowresThis document sets out how and when stakeholders and other interested parties will be consulted and involved in the preparation of the Local Development Framework (LDF), as well as in Development Control.

Community involvement is an important part of the process of preparing the new development plan. The aim of the Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) is to help ensure community ownership of the LDF, and to strengthen community involvement in planning over time. It also aims to improve overall representation and involvement across all sections of the community.

The SCI sets out the following:

  • The Council's intended approach to involving partners, interested parties and the community (including 'hard to reach' groups) in the production of the LDF and major development control decisions.
  • The proposed arrangements for participation and consultation.

 

The Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) was adopted by the Council on 28th March 2006.
