Norwich City Council has produced a draft Statement of community involvement and they are asking for your views on this Statement.
The Statement of community involvement (SCI) is the Norwich City Council’s code of practice on how people can expect to be involved in the planning process. It covers the production of different types of planning policy documents, and the different stages for each one. It is also concerned with how people should expect to be involved in the planning application process.
Norwich City Council’s current SCI was adopted in March 2010, however there have been significant changes to the overall planning system and the new SCI reflects the most up-to-date legislation and regulation changes. The new SCI also proposes a more streamlined approach to consultation and greater flexibility in terms of dealing with future legislation changes.
This is your opportunity to have your say. The draft document is available to view at the Planning Reception on the 2nd floor of City Hall and also in the Millennium Library at the Forum. You can also provide your feedback by completing the response form and emailing it to [email protected].
The consultation period will end at 5pm on 19 February 2013 and all responses must be received before this time.
