Revised LDP Delivery Agreement

The first key stage of the Revised LDP is to write a Delivery Agreement for its preparation. The Delivery Agreement is split into two key parts:

• The Timetable for the project management of the Revised LDP, setting out the statutory stages of the plan making process and when we have committed for them to take place. This also determines and evidences the availability of the necessary budgetary and staff resources that are required to prepare the Plan.
• The Community Involvement Scheme (CIS) then sets out the principles, strategy and mechanisms for early, continuous and broad stakeholder involvement in the preparation of the Revised LDP. The CIS shows how, who, and when the Local Planning Authority will seek the involvement and engagement of these stakeholders. This will include, but certainly not be restricted to, the general public, community groups, commercial developers and public bodies and service providers alike.

In March/April 2022, the Council and Welsh Government approved a Delivery Agreement for a Revised LDP 2022 - 2037, with a start date of April 2022. In July 2023, an amendment to the DA and its timetable was approved. The new DA Timetable sets out timeline for the completion of the Revised LDP through to its adoption in May 2026, as follows.
