<strong>Scarborough</strong> Borough Council: Draft <strong>Statement</strong> <strong>of</strong> Community Involvement Page 14<br />

• Local Partnerships especially the Local Strategic Partnership.<br />

• Stakeholder meetings; e.g. Architects and Agents Forum.<br />

• Through the Urban Renaissance programme (regular meetings).<br />

• Letters to stakeholders, Statutory consultees, etc<br />

• Email.<br />

• Leaflets.<br />

5.5.3 Joint common consultation methods will be employed where possible. For example,<br />

there are many links between the LDF and the Community Strategy and there may be<br />

opportunities to carry out dual-exhibitions and presentations or to carry out joint<br />

consultation exercises.<br />

5.5.4 Whilst the Council has embraced new technology and make wide use <strong>of</strong> the internet<br />

and e-mail, it is considered important that these do not replace other conventional<br />

means <strong>of</strong> communication entirely as this would isolate sections <strong>of</strong> the community<br />

with no access to information technology or those with poor IT skills.<br />

5.5.5 The strengths and weaknesses <strong>of</strong> the various consultation methods have been assessed<br />

and assisted in selecting the most appropriate methods <strong>of</strong> consultation for DPD and<br />

SPD production. Table 1 overleaf (Methods <strong>of</strong> <strong>Consultation</strong> and Involvement)<br />

provides this information.<br />

5.6 The Stages <strong>of</strong> <strong>Consultation</strong><br />

The range <strong>of</strong> proposed documents, the timetable for their preparation and the<br />

opportunities for community involvement are set out in the Council’s Local<br />

Development Scheme (see website or obtain a copy from the Forward Planning<br />

Office). Whilst the Planning Section will promote continuous community<br />

involvement via the publication <strong>of</strong> updates in the local press the Councils Newsletter<br />

and by updating the Planning webpages, the formal opportunities for public<br />

consultation on the various documents are summarised in the diagram opposite. The<br />

current timetable for the production <strong>of</strong> several DPD’s and SPD’s and the likely<br />

timescale for consultation exercises can be found in the Local Development Scheme<br />

which can be viewed on the Councils website or copies can be provided if requested.<br />
