Published: 18 February 2026
What is Regulation 19?
Regulation 19 is the last opportunity to comment on the Local Plan before it is submitted for independent examination. At this stage, feedback should focus on whether the plan is legally compliant and technically sound according to national planning policy.
Why Your Voice Matters
The Local Plan sets out where new housing, infrastructure, and other developments could happen across the borough up to 2042. It affects the future of our villages and surrounding areas, so it’s important that residents have their say.
