As you all know, TMBC Full Council deferred the decision on the Draft Local Plan 33 votes to 10, pending proper evidence about Water Supply, Traffic and Foul Drainage, but the Government swiftly intervened, and have instructed us to proceed with the Regulation 19 Consultation. It is very important to get as many responses as possible.

​

The consultation is intensely technical, and so we have tried to simplify it here. All the actual Chapters from the Plan are listed below, but Matt has discovered there is a Word submission document that makes it much simpler to make a submission. Your personal details go into Part A, comments into Part B. You then have to submit each document separately to localplan@tmbc.gov.uk. If you have a longer document to post that you can fit in Form B, just copy and paste Form A with your contact details, and Form B to the top of your document. We recommend you say "YES" to the question about speaking at the Inquiry, you can always decline when invited.

 

You can then submit your response at   reg19tmbcconsult.commonplace.is  . Click the yellow button for the Chapter you are submitting, scroll to the bottom of the page and there you can upload you submission.

​

 YOU MUST SUBMIT BY 11.59 25th OCTOBER 2026
