Public examination for Joint Local Plan to start next week
Jan 23, 2018
Some of the key issues to affect life in Plymouth and the surrounding areas will come under the scrutiny of planning inspectors over the coming weeks.
A public examination is due to start on Tuesday 30 January to look at the detail of the Plymouth and South West Devon Joint Local Plan, which sets out how our cities, towns and villages could grow and prosper in years to come.
The plan was submitted last July by Plymouth City Council, South Hams District Council and West Devon Borough Council to the Secretary of State. Now it is up to planning inspectors Wendy Burden and Yvonne Wright to review the plan and decide whether or not it is sound.
