Help plan for the future of Dartmoor National Park
Thu 24 Jan 2019
Help plan for the future of Dartmoor by commenting on the new draft Local Plan. It was published for consultation in early December, and you can submit your comments on the Dartmoor website until 4 February 2019.
The Local Plan sets out what type of development is and isn’t acceptable in the National Park. It is what the National Park Authority uses to decide planning applications, and sets out where future development may take place.
The Local Plan contains a broad range of policies that cover things like extensions and conservatories, conversions and new houses. It identifies land for future housing or employment development in Dartmoor’s larger towns and villages. It covers farming and other business. It also considers the natural and historic environment and resource issues like energy and quarrying.
In order to ensure that planning works for everyone with an interest in Dartmoor we are asking for your comments on a new draft Local Plan. This means reading the draft Plan and sharing your comments with us. It’s important to tell us what you like, what you don’t like; whether you think we should change any of the policies, and why.
