FAQs
How will the Local Plan be used?
The Local Plan is used to help decide the outcome of planning applications for land development (changes of use and new buildings) in Richmond until 2039. It will ensure that plans for growth and development benefit local people and provide the services that places need, whilst preserving our unique and diverse heritage. The Plan will also align with our commitment as an organisation to become carbon neutral by 2030 and are on our way to be a net-zero carbon borough by 2050.
How else can I get involved?
If you would like to share this with others or add further comments to the draft Local Plan, which is open until January 31, visit the council’s website.
Information gleaned from the responses will be used to shape the next version of the plan to balance the social, environmental and economic ambitions for the borough.
