flexible component documents, including:<br />
• Development Plan Documents;<br />
• Supplementary Planning Documents;<br />
• Area Action Plans;<br />
• An Annual Monitoring Report;<br />
• The Local Development Scheme; and<br />

The following section explains when the community can become involved in the<br />
production <strong>of</strong> LDFs, how the Council will assist the community in becoming involved<br />
