Muckhart Community Plan (MCP)
Housing Working Group
The recently established Housing Working Group is looking for members of our community, who may have an interest in shaping future housing developments within the Muckhart area, to join the group to help determine a set of principles which Muckhart Community Council (MCC) will work with, moving forward.
The following describes the role currently defined for the Working Group:
- To review and understand the existing policies of Clackmannanshire Council and the Scottish Government which influence housing development in Muckhart, such as:
- The policies in the current Local Development Plan (LDP) on areas such as: affordable housing; layout and design principles; energy efficiency and low carbon development; and development in the countryside
- Relevant Supplementary Guidance on, for example, affordable housing
- National Planning Policy on, for example, rural development
- To review the principles, as currently detailed in the MCP, taking cognisance of Council policies, National Planning Policies, etc.
- To prepare a finalised draft of a set of principles for consultation with the Muckhart community
- MCC to agree a finalised set of principles against which planning applications can be assessed and responses made, for example, to the Main Issues Report (MIR), in relation to housing, the draft LDP, National Planning Policies, future consultations on planning legislation, etc.
