Statement of Community Involvement

SCI Cover lowresCommunity involvement is an important part of preparing the Local Development Framework (LDF). The Statement of Community Invlovement (SCI) sets out how and when the local community and other interested parties will be consulted and involved in the preparation of LDF.

The aim of the SCI is to help ensure community ownership of the LDF and to involve people at every stage of document preparation. Is also aims to strengthen community involvement in planning over time and to improve overall representation and involvement across all sections of the community.

The SCI was adopted by the Council on 28 March 2006 and sets out the following:

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