Dartmoor Local Plan Consultation
Dartmoor National Park Authority are publishing a draft new Local Plan for Dartmoor, and consulting on it between 3rd December 2018 and 4th February 2019.
The Local Plan sets out what type of development is and isn’t acceptable in the National Park, it is used to decide planning applications, and sets out where future development may take place.
Help to plan for Dartmoor’s future by commenting on it – it’s important to share what you like, as well as anything you’d like to see change. View and comment on the plan online or at libraries, parish councils and information centres during the consultation period.
