The Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) sets out how the council will engage with local people and organisations in the planning process through the preparation of planning policy documents such as the Local Plan and during the consideration planning applications. The SCI is a public statement and sets the minimum standards we aim to achieve in this process.
The SCI was adopted by the council in August 2021. The SCI was subsequently updated in March 2022 to remove temporary Coronavirus Regulations that expired on 31st December 2021.
