Planning Policy Consultations

Chichester Local Plan 2021-2039 Examination 

Chichester District Council submitted the Chichester Local Plan 2021 – 2039 (‘the Plan’) for examination on 3 May 2024.

After holding examination hearings in October and November 2024, the Inspectors invited the council to finalise a schedule of proposed ‘Main Modifications’ to the submitted Plan. These are changes needed to resolve any soundness or legal compliance issues, in order for the council to be able to adopt the plan in due course, and are proposed without prejudice to the Inspectors’ final conclusions on the Plan.

We consulted on these Main Modifications and supporting documents from 9:00 on 10^th April to 5pm on 29^th May 2025.

All responses to the consultation have now been published and sent to the Local Plan Inspectors for their consideration.
