At Full Council meeting on 22 July, the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan 2015 to 2035 was formally adopted. This follows the receipt of the Inspectors’ Report last week, which concludes that the plan is sound, subject to the Modifications recommended. Notification of the plan’s adoption, and a copy of the adoption statement, will be sent to all those involved in the process, or who have expressed an interest in the Local Plan, as well as the town and parish councils and statutory consultees. The adopted Local Plan, incorporating the Inspector's Modifications, is now available on the Council’s website and carries full weight in the determination of planning applications.
