The RTPI in Scotland is undertaking a research project into spatial planning and community planning and is calling for evidence to support this project, with responses sought by 12 December.
The Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) writes:
As one of the key policy issues identified for RTPI Scotland in 2014, Intern Project Officer Sile Hayes is exploring the issue of Spatial Planning and Community Planning through a research project looking at the current disconnect between the processes, outcomes and priorities of community planning and spatial planning, how we can address this, and what the benefits of a greater connection between processes might be for all parties.
We have now issues a formal ‘Call for Evidence’ and ask that any interested party contacts Sile Hayes in response to the questions set below.
A separate survey has been created specifically for Planning Authorities and Community Planning Partnerships across Scotland.
- What are the opportunities in better linking spatial planning and community planning?
- What are the barriers to effectively linking spatial planning and community planning?
- Do you have any good practice examples of spatial and community planning working well together; or of shared outcomes delivered successfully through linking spatial and community planning processes, policies and practices?
