Local strategic planning
We keep an active eye on the strategic planning process locally.
In recent years we have commented on strategic documents such as the Unitary Development Plan (UDP) and draft contaminated land strategy and we will be inputting into the production of the new Local Development Framework (LDF) over the next few years.
Richmond and Twickenham Friends of the Earth does not generally become involved in planning applications on individual local sites. However, where issues of environmental importance such as pollution, transport, energy efficiency or nature conservation are involved, we are happy to help local community organisations who want to participate in the planning process and are in need of support and information.
