The Local Development Plan (LDP)
The Planning etc (Scotland) Act 2006, requires that Clackmannanshire Council produce a Local Development Plan (LDP) to include for this area:
- a vision statement and related spatial strategy - being a detailed statement of the Council's policies and proposals as to the development and use of land;
- such other matters as may be prescribed; and
- any other matter that the Council consider it appropriate to include.
The LDP will be a complete review of the current Development Plan.
A Development Plan Scheme (DPS) for the LDP is updated and published annually. The most recent DPS was published in August 2012.
As the first stage in preparing the LDP, a Main Issues Report, Monitoring Statement, Environmental Report, Site Assessment Report, and an Open Space Framework were open to public consultation during January - March 2011. For more information, please refer to our Local Development Plan - Main Issues Report Stage web page.
All relevant comments and suggestions received are being fully considered when forming the proposed Local Development Plan.
The Council currently aims to publish the Proposed Local Development Plan for public consultation soon after it is approved by the Council. The current target is to report to Council in March 2013.
