Code Description Expected
Outcome % Progress Latest Note Due Date Managed By Assigned To
SP1213LP_A_A02
Completion of new Local Development Plan with full member and public engagement.
2012/13 - Quarter Two Update As per Quarter One, progress of the new Local Development Plan has been on target but delay has been introduced due to democratic process necessitating a 'Modified Plan' stage. This is estimated to take six months from inception to completion. However, a Committee decision in relation to North Coast housing allocations is required before the Modified Plan can be published. Local elections and the subsequent summer recess has introduced another delay of some 3 months. These
circumstances, outwith the control of the service, mean that the timescales for completion of this action should be revised to 31st October 2013.
