Local Development Scheme (LDS)

The Local Development Scheme

The programme and timescales for preparing our local plan are set out in the Local Development Scheme (LDS). The LDS explains what documents will form the development plan for the area, and the key stages for their preparation and management. The LDS must be made publicly available, and kept up-to-date. It is important that local communities and interested parties can keep track of the Local Plan's progress. 

The current version of the LDS was published on 08 February 2024, and can be accessed below:
