Progress of the new local plan in 2019 including modification of the publication draft.

18 July - proposed further main modifications to the publication draft Craven local plan.

Following the submission of the publication draft Craven local plan in March 2018, related examination hearings held in October 2018 and main modifications to the plan proposed in February 2019 (see below), we proposed three further main modifications, in order to make the plan sound. We ran a six-week public consultation on the proposed further main modifications from 18 July to 29 August 2019, inclusive. Although the consultation is now closed, relevant documents are still available, below, for reference purposes.
