The Working Party has worked through all the responses to the 2019 consultation, categorising them and identifying those which raise a planning issue or action that needs to be considered further. The 2019 draft plan has been amended accordingly to produce the draft of the Plan which has been submitted to the City of Durham Parish Council for approval. This process was supported by meetings / correspondence, with relevant staff from Durham County Council’s planning and spatial policy team.
The codes for categorising the responses are as follows:
- c1: outside the remit of the neighbourhood plan
- c1a: outside the Plan area
- c1b: planning issue that has to be dealt with by the Council or by other bodies not by a neighbourhood plan
- c1c: not a planning issue
- c2: a generic style comment of praise, blame, opinion etc not requiring a response just an acknowledgement
- c3: suggesting changes to the policies
- c4: suggesting input into initiatives in ‘Looking Forwards’
- c5: suggesting changes to the other text of the Plan
The amended sections of the 2019 draft plan have the changes tracked as follows:
- red = deleted text, with the comment number included which can be checked in the categorisation/responses for consideration files for the full details of the comment
- green = new text, with the comment number included which can be checked in the categorisation/responses for consideration files for the full details of the comment
