OUR TOWN, OUR PLAN! NEWTOWN & LLANLLWCHAIARN PLACE PLAN
The challenge: How to build a long-term plan to be adopted as Supplementary Planning Guidance?
The Newtown & Llanllwchaiarn Place Plan was developed between 2019-2021 with the local community, to set out the town’s vision for the 15 year period to 2036. The Town Council worked with Planning Aid Wales, Place Studio and the Planning Policy team at Powys County Council. The plan and the projects it proposes are based on ideas and opinions drawn from the community. In all over 7,000 comments were made by residents through stakeholder events, a Schools Councils event, a public survey and drop in events. The Place Pan was adopted in 2021 by Powys County Council as Supplementary Planning Guidance.
