News on Herefordshire Local Plan 2021-2041

The Local Plan 2021-2041 Place Shaping Options Consultation is still live and runs until the 29th July. You can make comments on the plan via the ' Have Your Say ' tile on the Commonplace home page .

We are dedicated to supporting Town and Parish Councils and local community organisations in accessing the consultation material and making it as easy as possible to comment.

We understand there is a lot to read and think about in this consultation. However, we are doing everything we can to tackle climate change and reduce the amount of pre-printing the council undertakes. Planning nationally is moving to a more digital form but we understand that this transition is not always easy for of everyone and digital consultation methods will be more refined over time.

The challenge has been to articulate a complex planning context, constraints, issues and possible solutions to a wide audience that will span from no knowledge and interest in planning all the way through to technical experts.

Therefore, we have created a simple guide on how to use our new consultation system that can be found here: A quick guide on how to navigate the Herefordshire Local Plan Place Making Consultation .
