Development management submission

On 15 November 2013 we submitted the Development Management Local Plan to the Secretary of State for examination by an independent Planning Inspector.​

This final document is known as the Development Management Local Plan (DMLP) submission version. Once the DMLP is submitted a Planning Inspector will be appointed to assess the Plan, check that all legal requirements have been met and review and listen to comments from residents, stakeholders and businesses, as well as study local evidence. ​An examination in public will be held if necessary.
