Planning Online
The Government has agreed to merge the county, borough and district councils in Shropshire to form a single unitary council. The new council will start work on 1 April 2009. In the meantime, an Implementation Executive (IE) has been established to take key decisions. At its first formal meeting on Friday 29 February, IE set up three sub-committees including one devoted to taking forward work on the Local Development Framework (LDF). Meetings of both the IE and the LDF Sub-committee are open to members of the public and representatives from the media and their agendas and minutes will be publicised on all the councils' websites.
In the period before 1 April 2009 each of Shropshire's district and borough councils will continue to take decisions on planning applications in their individual areas whilst the County Council will continue to take decisions on county matters and minerals and waste applications. In making these decisions on planning applications, each council will continue to apply their own adopted 'saved' local plan policies to their individual areas. If you have a planning enquiry in the period before 1 April 2009 you should continue to contact the planning department at your local council.
