In 2021, Highland Council made a commitment to develop Area Place Plans (APPs) mainly based on Area Committee boundaries. The Plans are being developed and facilitated in various ways across Highland, as each area is different.

Area Place Plans set out the vision, ambition and priorities for people and place in that particular area. This will support targeting resources, service delivery and provide a clear vision for attracting external investment. The APPs will help the Highland Council, partners and communities secure funding by evidencing the impact of every pound spent and the actions associated will provide clarity and manage expectation around how and where resources are prioritised. They will also provide a stronger framework for communities to prepare more local plans empowering them to drive and deliver change.

We appreciate there are a number of plans which inter-relate with the APPs, including Local Place Plans (LPPs), the Highland-wide Local Development Plan (LDP), the Highland Outcomes Improvement Plan (HOIP), the Highland Investment Plan (HIP) and the Community Partnership Plans. The information gathered from this Area Place Plan Participation site will be shared with colleagues working on those plans, and will minimise repeated consultations (this does not necessarily mean that there will be no other consultation from other Plans)



DRAFT DINGWALL & SEAFORTH AREA PLACE PLAN

The Draft Area Place Plan for Dingwall & Seaforth has been uploaded, along with the initial draft appendices to this site and can be found on the documents tab.

We have opened another Ideas Board for any feedback on the document - please let us know if we have captured things correctly.

PLEASE NOTE COMMENTS BY 22 NOVEMBER 2024, AS THE IDEAS BOARD WILL CLOSE.

Thank you
