We have to publish a Local Development Scheme (LDS) and keep it up to date.
The Local Development Scheme states which documents, when prepared, will make up the Local Plan for the area. The main purpose of the LDS is to ensure that the local community and stakeholders have a clear idea regarding the content of the local plan and the timetable for its preparation.
You can read the Local Development Scheme below.
On 1 April 2023 local government in Cumbria changed, with Cumberland Council providing all your council services.
Don't worry though, your bins will be emptied as normal, and you'll still be able to speak to the same team about any enquiries to do with things like council tax, benefits, planning or any other service.
Find out more about the changes.
Keep up to date by finding and following the new council on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
