Just when you thought that the Council had finally decided on a Local Plan that would take York into the 2030’s, the authority has launched another public consultation.
The last consultation took place in the spring.
The Council says that”homes in the city will receive a special edition of the Our City publication over the next two weeks, which explains the plan and how to have your say.
The full version of the Local Plan pre-publication draft – and comment forms which can be sent freepost – is available to view online at www.york.gov.uk/localplan, in all the city’s libraries and the council’s reception at west offices.
Residents are also invited to one of eight special consultation events, while additional information will also be available at all ward committees which meet during the consultation period.
You can also get involved via twitter @CityofYork or facebook.com/cityofyork, using the hashtag #YorkLocalPlan
There wil be a public consultation event on Monday 16 October at Acomb Explore Library, Acomb (3-7.30pm)
Additional information will also be provided at the ward committee meeting (Dringhouses & Woodthorpe joint with Westfield) – Tuesday 26 September York & District Indoor Bowls Club, 302 Thanet Road, Dringhouses, York, YO24 2NW 6.30-8pm)
The published plans still involve development of the Lowfields playing field, so it is important that residents record their objections to any proposals that they disagree with
There is expect to be an “examination in public” by an independent inspector early next year.
