18/06/07 - Public Consultation on the Core Strategy Submission Document

Core Strategy Submission Development Plan Document

The Core Strategy Submission Document has been prepared and was approved for submission by Full Council in April 2007. Work on producing the required supporting documents such as the Sustainability Appraisal, Appropriate Assessment and Consultation Statement has now been completed. These documents were submitted to Government in June 2007.

The Core Strategy is submitted to Government in order for it to be 'Examined'. This is the next stage of plan preparation where the Government appoints an independent inspector to examine the draft plan and subject it to a series of tests to see if it is "sound". This means asking is the plan the best response to the problems facing the district and is it "fit for purpose"?

A six-week period of public consultation ran from midday 18th June to midday 30th July 2007. Comments made at this stage will be forwarded to the Inspector for his/her consideration and a public hearing will be held, if required, for people to put their views forward in person.

Copies of the Core Strategy have been sent to all Town and Parish Councils as well as those organisations that were involved in the earlier stages of the consultation process.
