A Local Area Plan is a legal document and is a public statement of planning policies. It is prepared in consultation with the local community and members of the public. It sets out a strategy for the Proper Planning and Sustainable Development of an area.
After much negotiation the community achieved a number of infrastructural improvements that were set down in the 2006 Local Area Plan.
In 2016, the council unanimously adopted a Local Area Plan which rowed back on a number of necessary improvements.
Some of these pieces of infrastructure that will not be delivered are;
