  • North Somerset Local Plan 2036 Issues and Options Consultation Statement – March 2019
    North Somerset Local Plan 2036 Issues and Options Consultation Statement – March 2019 Introduction This document explains how North Somerset Council undertook consultation in on the North Somerset Local Plan 2036 – Issues and Options Document (Sept 2018). It sets out how North Somerset Council has sought participation from communities and stakeholders across North Somerset. It covers: • Which bodies and persons were invited to make comments; • How those bodies and persons were invited to make comment; • The material that was subject to consultation • A summary of the issues raised This consultation statement complies with the North Somerset’s Statement of Community Involvement (SCI). The SCI outlines that the Council is committed to effective community engagement, and seeks to use a wide range of methods for involving the community in the plan making process. North Somerset Council’s Statement of Community Involvement was adopted in March 2015. This replaces the former SCI which was adopted in February 2007 and needed updating because of changes in planning legislation and increased use of electronic communication in the planning process. This revised Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) sets out how the Council will involve the community and stakeholders in the preparation, alteration and review of local planning policy and the consideration of planning applications. The SCI proposed that the consultation methods and those engaged would vary according to the purpose of the consultation and the bodies or persons who the council were keen to involve. Background The Joint Spatial Plan (JSP) provides the new development context to 2036. This will roll-forward the existing proposals contained in all four West of England Core Strategies and identify the additional housing and infrastructure needed to 2036.
