Fife Council is inviting residents, businesses, and organizations to participate in shaping the future of the region through its new Local Development Plan, 'Fife's Place Plan'.
The council is seeking ideas and potential development sites for housing, employment, infrastructure, community spaces, and environmental projects. Community councils, landowners, and developers are encouraged to submit their proposals through the online portal, which is open for 14 weeks until February 24, 2025.
This public consultation aims to ensure the new development plan reflects the needs and aspirations of the Fife community.
For more information and to submit proposals, visit www.fife.gov.uk/FPP.
Councillor Altany Craik, Fife Council’s Spokesperson for Finance, Economy & Strategic Planning, said: "We look forward to receiving your ideas for Fife’s future. This consultation is an invitation for individuals, communities, landowners, developers and other organisations to share ideas, identify development opportunities, and help us address key issues like housing, infrastructure, and community use.
"The call for sites will help us to update our evidence base of potentially suitable and available land for diverse purposes. As part of our commitment towards reducing our impact on the environment, we’re also looking for suggestions about land that’s suitable for nature recovery, biodiversity or carbon offsetting."
