Introduction
Planning is a highly regulated process with all manner of rules and regulations. It’s based upon Government-issued national guidelines, and a pyramid of plans at County level then feeding through to Local Plans in each planning area/district that map out the anticipated developments over the next 5/10 or even 20 years.
In some areas towns and parishes have developed plans at a very localised level, but not in the Dover District that we’re part of…… at least not yet.
In February 2023 a meeting was held in Deal to discuss more joined up ways of working and the best way to help other groups looking for information to help their campaigns. The links below go to the various sections of the discussion for further, more detailed information……
