About the SCI

 

Consultation on Part 1 update

We are seeking your views on an updated Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) Part 1 – Local Plans.

Updated Statement of Community Involvement Part 1 (Local Plan) [pdf document]

The SCI explains how we will involve local communities at each stage of the planning process.  Local authorities are required to review their SCI's at least every five years.  The Darlington SCI - Part 1 (Local Plans) was last reviewed in August 2020. It was published with temporary updates made to reflect national COVID 19 pandemic restrictions.  The update will remove these restrictions.  It will also allow some other minor updates to be considered before the consultation periods on the Local Plan Review.
