Local Place Plans were introduced by the Scottish Government as a means of bringing local voices into the planning system, allowing community-led ideas to influence decision making. Local Place Plans focus on themes that relate to planning policy e.g. building use, land use, access to services, movement. They identify the key opportunities for impactful change by offering the opportunity for a community-led, collaborative approach.
The ‘Houston 2050’ Place Plan will describe community ambition for development over the next 25 years, covering both short and long term aims. It is being delivered by the architecture studio New Practice, on behalf of the Houston Community Council. In order to bring together this vision document, we first need to engage with the Houston community.
The survey link will be open for comment until September 5th at 5pm.
Houston Community Council will be at the Carrick Centre on the morning of Saturday 30th August. Please drop by to share your views on the future of your neighbourhood.
