Colchester City Council is providing support for residents facing the cost of living crisis.
Tendring District Council and Colchester City Council, in partnership with Essex County Council, have prepared and published a Submission Version of the Tendring Colchester Borders Garden Community Development Plan Document. This sets out the detail of a new Garden Community proposed for land crossing the Tendring and Colchester border.
The purpose of the Regulation 19 Consultation is to provide an opportunity for representations to be made on the content of the Plan before it is examined by a Planning Inspector. This is a formal process that requires comments on the soundness and legal compliance of the Plan. In accordance with the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 (PCPA), the appointed Planning Inspector will consider all comments on the plans that were made within the consultation period.
The consultation runs from 15 May 2023 to 25 June 2023.
The Regulation 19 Consultation follows on from the Regulation 18 Consultation which took place between March and April 2022. The representations received during this consultation have been used to inform the development of the Plan.
To comment and to find out more, visit the Tendring Colchester Borders (TCB) Engagement website.
These documents, along with the supporting evidence base can also be viewed on the Tendring Colchester Borders (TCB) Engagement website where you can comment and find out more. Paper copies of the Submission Version Plan will be made available to view at Colchester Town Hall, Clacton Town Hall, Colchester Library, Wivenhoe Library, Greenstead Library and all libraries in Tendring District.
We are holding a series of consultation events where officers and paper copies of the Plan will be available.
Come along to one of the events below:
Once the consultation closes the councils will submit the Submission Version Plan, all the comments received from the consultation, any recommended changes, and the evidence base, to the Secretary of State. An independent, government-appointed Planning Inspector will then scrutinise the Plan via an ‘Examination in Public’ before making decisions on whether the Plan is legally complaint, sound and can be adopted by the councils.
