Development Management Policies DPD

Representation ID: 17645

Received: 31/03/2010

Representation Summary:

It is understood that legally RDC are required by law to consult but the sheer amount of consultation documents, their size and in some cases complexity is likely to overwhelm people. The fact that 'packs' are coming out over a short period is not helping.
If RDC are honest about their willingness to consult then after each consultation they should advise the electorate how the strategy is being changed to meet their wishes.
