Plan 2019

The Durham City Neighbourhood Draft Plan public consultation, which ran from 17th May to 5th July 2019, has now closed. The deadline was extended by a week for reasons explained in this news item. Many thanks to everyone who responded.

The responses to the consultation will be posted on this website as soon as possible.

The Plan was originally produced by local volunteers who came together as the Neighbourhood Planning Forum. A previous draft of the Plan was subject to public consultation in November / December 2017. When the City of Durham Parish Council was created in April 2018 it assumed responsibility for completing the Plan. It carried out this further consultation to fulfil a legal requirement and to give people a chance to comment on the way in which the policies have been revised in response to the 2017 consultation.
