Submitted
The Central Park Area Action Plan was submitted along with its submitted Sustainability Appraisal to the Secretary of State on 20 December 2007.
A period for making representation on the soundness of this plan began on 16 January 2008 and ran until 27 February 2008. This was not a consultation stage with Plymouth City Council, but an opportunity for people to inform the independent planning inspector whether they thought this was the best and most appropriate plan.
All comments were considered by the inspector at the public examination which was held on 4 June 2008 at the Jury's Inn, Exeter Street, Plymouth. The draft programme of issues for the examination, set out by the inspector, can be viewed in the document 'programme of issues for examination' in the table below.
Those who appeared at the examination were given the opportunity to submit further statements and these together with the Council's Statements can be downloaded from the Participant Statements and Council Statements documents table below.
The inspector had arranged a separate session to hear the statement of one person who couldn't make the main examination day. This separate session took place on Tuesday 3 June 2008 (the day before the main examination day). For more information see the Programme Officers Announcement Extra Session document.
