On the 31st July 2018, the Council adopted Burnley’s Local Plan.
Burnley’s Local Plan covers the whole of the Borough and provides the statutory planning framework for the Borough for non-minerals and waste matters. It replaces the 2006 Burnley Local Plan. The new Plan will be accompanied by a separate Gypsy and Traveller Site Allocations development plan document on which work will commence shortly.
