The 20-year Proposed West Highland and Islands Local Development Plan, also known as WestPlan, sets outs where and when future development could happen.
The document was published for an eight-week consultation earlier this month and residents are being invited to make comments on the proposed blueprint.

To raise awareness, the Council has already written to all addresses within 30 metres of any specific sites identified in the plan as being suitable for future development.
Tim Stott of the Development Plans Team said: "Identifying a site for development in the plan confirms the principle of development so it's important people have their say on whether they agree with the sites identified. Any development proposed would still require a planning application that would be consulted on separately. Typically sites are actually developed by either the landowner or a developer, in most cases it won't be the Council.
"We are asking people to tell us what they support or object to in the Plan including the reasons for their views to help us decide whether anything needs to change."
The deadline for submissions is 30 June 2017.
