Item 8 Planning Service Priorities 2019-20

This document contains information for the Cairngorms National Park Authority (Park Authority) Planning Committee, agenda item 8 from April 25, 2019. It outlines the planning service priorities for 2019/20 and reviews progress from 2018/19. For the previous year, the planning service completed three of six identified priorities, facing challenges due to staff shortages. For the upcoming year, six service priorities are proposed, including analysing responses to the Local Development Plan (LDP) consultation. The committee is asked to consider and approve these priorities, which will be included in staff work programs for the year. These priorities aim to improve core planning services such as development plan preparation, delivery, management, monitoring and enforcement to improve outcomes for customers and the Park Authority.
