Statement of Community Involvement

The Statement of Community Involvement sets out how and when communities (you, businesses, community groups, and members of the public) can most effectively get involved with the town and country planning issues that concern them.

As well as the Minerals and Waste Development Framework, it sets out opportunities for getting involved with the planning applications the county council determines.

The adopted document

The Statement of Community Involvement was finalised in December 2010 and formally adopted on 14 January 2011.
