Wales - Planning service delivery in areas of outstanding natural beauty



'Planning' e mag reports:


'A study carried out for the Welsh government into planning service delivery in areas of outstanding natural beauty (AONBs) and national parks has called for more national reporting on planning performance within the statutory designated landscapes...


...The study also says there needs to be and "improved perception of planning in statutory designated landscapes". It says: "There is a long held perception that planning within statutory designated landscapes stands in the way of community and business development. Overcoming this perception requires a range of focused activities: the preparation of Sustainable Development Strategies for individual statutory designated landscapes; setting up of Planning Advisory Groups to advise on planning delivery; setting targets for the approval of commercial developments; and developing collaborative approaches with local communities planning the future of their area."
