Issues & Options Consultation

This first round of engagement (called the Issues and Options Consultation) took place between the 18th October and the 17th December 2021. We consulted on the Issues and Options document, the Statement of Community Involvement, the Integrated Impact Assessment Scoping Report, and carried out a Call for Sites Exercise.

The Issues and Options document identified our biggest challenges and opportunities and suggested ideas and solutions can be read in full here.

We received 5207 comments from 386 respondents. Thank you to everyone who provided comments. The Issues and Options Consultation Report provides a summary of the comments received and how the Draft Local Plan has considered and addressed them.
