Midlothian Council has approved the final changes to the area’s Local Development Plan, which sets out the planning strategy for Midlothian over the next ten years.
Public consultation - Replacing the Midlothian Local Plan published in 2008, the new document has been approved following a lengthy period of public consultation. A total of 838 representations and 2,770 separate comments were received on the Proposed Midlothian Local Development Plan, following its publication in May 2015. These representations were considered by the Council in May 2016, with unresolved issues subsequently examined by a Reporter appointed by the Scottish Government in November last year. - http://www.midlothian.gov.uk/MLDP.
Plan to be published shortly - As a result of the Council’s approval of this final stage, the Midlothian Local Development Plan will be published within the next few weeks, with copies available for inspection online and in the councils’ planning office and local libraries.
