Consultation has concluded
Each year Aberdeenshire Council has to prepare and publish a Development Plan Scheme to inform stakeholders and interested parties of the programme for preparing the Local Development Plan. The Development Plan Scheme is important as it will govern the way that we will engage with you throughout the preparation of LDP 2029.
A copy of the Draft Development plan Scheme for the forthcoming financial year has been presented for your consideration as a document on the right side of the screen. We would encourage you to read this document, or have it open as you complete the questionnaire to help you understand the questions that we are asking. If you do not think that answering the questions we have identified addresses your concerns then please feel free to contact us independently through our e-mail address at LDP@aberdeenshire.gov.uk. It would help us if you could mark your correspondence with "DPS Response" so that we know that it relates directly to this consultation.
The draft Development Plan Scheme builds on the previous Development Plan Schemes published in each May. It provides a brief outline of the Documents that make up the Development Plan and the Stages of Plan Development. It documents changes from the previous year's programme. In the section Engagement processes we highlight whether our timeline has slipped from that set out last year, and why.
In the How you can get involved (The Participation Statement ) we set out the engagement activities proposed for the current stage of plan preparation for each stage of the plan The survey is primarily focused on these proposals and the results of this part of the survey will be of particular interest to us. Information is provided on how our proposals for engagement meet the Scottish Governmennts Effective Community Engagement in Local Development Planning Guidance and the overall use we will make of the National Standards for Community Engagement,.
We have tried to make this survey as quick and easy for you as we can. You will have to be registered to complete this survey. You do not need to answer all questions, if you do not want to. The results of the survey will be published here after its close on 15 March 2024
Please see our Privacy Statement for more information. The results of the survey will be reported to the Infrastructure Services Committee, probably on the 16 May 2023, and will be published here for your information.

We would like your views on the draft Local Development Plan Scheme 2024.
The Local Development Plan is a document published annually to set out the programme to produce the Local Development Plan, a key document that Aberdeenshire Council must prepare to guide and direct built development within Aberdeenshire. This directs what planning applications must follow to achieve consent unless there are significant reasons why a "departure" from the plan can be justified.
The Development Plan Scheme 2024 has been written as an update to the Development Plan Schem of 2023.
This questionnaire seeks your views on all parts of this document but specifically highlights issues relating to the revised timetable for the Local Development Plan, the Engagement Processes and the Participation Statement that details how you can get involved.
The survey contains ten questions that we would like your views on, some of these provide an opportunity to advise us on specific changes you would like to see madeto the document.
