Dear Parish & Town Councils,
It has been agreed to commence the initial consultation on the First Draft Local Plan as soon as possible following the District & Parish elections in May.
The consultation will run from Tuesday 7 May – Wednesday 19 June. A number of promotional tasks will be undertaken to help bring this to the attention of local people and we will be seeking your assistance with this nearer the time, for example in displaying posters in your community and raising awareness through parish meetings.
Those who have questions about the Local Plan proposed policies and sites will be able to come and discuss these with planning officers at a number of drop-in events during the consultation period. The events will be open between 2:30-7:30pm at the following locations:

A letter regarding the Local Plan (attached for info) is being distributed in the next week to all residences and commercial properties in North Norfolk via the annual Council Tax and Business Rates billing mailout. This will assist in raising the profile of the Local Plan whilst informing residents of the upcoming consultation and providing details as to how they can get involved.
If you have any questions about the Local Plan please do get in touch.
Best wishes
Chris Brown
Project Support Officer (Planning Policy)
