It provides clarity on the plan's scope, governance arrangements, resources, and timelines. The PID is designed as a reference tool for the team, stakeholders, and council leaders, supporting effective decision-making and ensuring everyone involved understands their roles and responsibilities throughout the plan-making process.]\n1. Plan Scope\n1.1 Role of Plan\n[Type here, example text.  As a local planning authority (LPA), we have a statutory duty under both the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and amendments made by the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act 2023 to prepare and adopt a Local Plan. Our Local Plan establishes how land within our area will be used and developed, setting out priorities for housing, employment, infrastructure, design, and environmental standards. In planning for housing, the government’s Standard Method provides the initial benchmark for determining local housing need. Importantly, our policies must contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation, avoid inconsistency with national development management policies, and align generally with any operative spatial development strategy relevant to our area. The Act empowers the Secretary of State to specify matters our plan must or may address. Once adopted, our Local Plan will serve as the principal basis for making planning decisions, directly shaping the future growth, development, and sustainability of our communities]\n1.2 Summary of Plan Scope:\n[Type here, for example is this plan updating or replacing an existing plan, are there particular policy or topic areas of focus or addition that the plan is seeking to address.]\n1.3 Relationship to other relevant plans and programmes at the regional or local level:\n[Type here]\n2.
