The Importance of Planning Policy

POSTED ON June 25, 2024 BY Barbara Cummins

The Cockburn is a strong advocate for the Scottish Planning System and of the need to have coherent, relevant and up-to-date policies in place.  We also need to have the system adequately resourced by professional, committed staff with the right skills and aptitude to serve this fine city.  Good decisions need good policies implemented by skilled staff with good advice and support from the community. It is that simple.
