Rutland Local Plan – Notification of Pre-submission consultation - Reminder

I am writing to notify you that public consultation on the new Rutland Local Plan closes on Monday 2nd December 2024 at 4pm, following its commencement on Monday 21st October 2024.

Consultation documents and the online consultation portal can be accessed on the Council’s Local Plan website.

If you have commented at previous consultation stages, you should use your existing Opus account. This will allow you to submit representations to the latest consultation as well as see what you have said previously. If you have forgotten your login details, you will be able to reset them using your email address.

This latest consultation stage offers a final chance to comment on whether the Plan is legally compliant and 'sound'. To be sound, the Local Plan must be:

positively prepared;
justified;
effective and;
consistent with national planning policy.

All representations made to the Regulation 19 consultation will be submitted along with the Local Plan and its supporting documentation for independent examination by the Planning Inspectorate. If the Plan is found to be sound, it will then be presented back to Rutland County Council’s Full Council for adoption.

The attached Statement of Representation Procedure – Reg 19 sets out how the consultation documents can be viewed, how to submit representations and who to contact for further information.

Kind regards
