Local Development Scheme 2024-2027

In September 2024 Cabinet agreed to reset the Local Plan in light of government changes to national policy and a revised housing need figure. Resetting the Local Plan necessitated changes to the Local Plan preparation programme. Delegated authority was granted by Cabinet to Sophie Broadfield, Executive Director of Sustainable Communities, in consultation with Cllr Matt McCabe to agree changes to the Local Development Scheme (LDS) reflecting the amended Local Plan programme.

Substantive changes were made to the Local Development Scheme in December 2024 reflecting the amended Local Plan programme. In light of changes to Local Plan engagement methods/reach related to resetting the Local Plan a further minor revision needs to be made to the Local Plan programme which needs to be reflected in the LDS. This minor change has been agreed under delegated authority arrangements outlined above.
