Planning Your Places Training 2018

PLANNING YOUR PLACES WORKSHOPS – November 2018

These free courses for Community and Town Councils and community groups covered the different types of planning policy in Wales, how these policies are made and how you can be involved in planning your places.  10 free courses were delivered across Wales with funding from the Welsh Government.

In detail, the courses explored:

• The National Development Framework, a new 20 year land use National plan for the whole of Wales being prepared by the Welsh Government.
• Planning policies set out in Planning Policy Wales by the Welsh Government and how they can affect local decisions.
• How Local Development Plans, prepared by local planning authorities inform decisions on planning applications and how people can be involved in shaping these plans.
• How communities can work with local authorities to prepare their own Place Plans.
