Community Planning

 

A Community Plan provides the opportunity for local people to explore and describe the key factors and local features that make their particular village, neighbourhood or small town unique.

 

Community Planning helps generate and develop overall community confidence and pride, and provides a useful tool that ensures future planned developments and enhancements add to the distinctivess and sense of place of the locality.

 

Our community planning services help to raise community awareness and build the capacity necessary for the benefit of their surrounding landscape, townscape and heritage assets.

• Assisting with the preparation of Village Design Statements

• Facilitating Local Community Plans

• Undertaking village and streetscape audits

• Organising community workshops and public consultation sessions
