Current Local Development Plan Review Documents
Under the changes introduced by the Planning Etc. Scotland Act 2006 the Council's current Structure and Local Plan will eventually be replaced by a Local Development Plan prepared under the new legislation. The new legislation, when implemented, will allow supplementary guidance to be adopted and issued by a planning authority, which can be more easliy updated if required and therefore be more pro-active to changing circumstances.
The Council's Planning Service is currently in the initial stages of preparing the work programme to deliver the Local Development Plan, but has progressed a review of public safety and safeguarding ahead of this work programme broadly based on guidance currently being provided by the Scottish Executive with regard to Supplementary Guidance.
