Community Planning: Two useful abstracts from recent government White papers have been prepared byJeff Bishop, BDOR Ltd:
-
“Strong and Prosperous Communities”, the Local Government White Paperof October 2006 The points selected are those that appear to have some relevance to the future role of local authorities and LSPs in “community planning”.
- Planning For A Sustainable Future White Paper: Abstract Re: Community Planning And Engagement This abstract attempts to draw out those mentions in the White Paper which appear to have some link to aspects of Community Planning, Community Plans and Community Engagement. For the benefit of the reader, and to enable backtracking to the original document, we have included key section titles and paragraph numbers (but excluded some of the case studies in boxes).
