Last day to comment on Dorset Council's Local Plan
It includes proposals for more than 30,500 new homes for Dorset
It's the final day to have your say on Dorset Council's Local Plan.
The document sets out a blue-print for the county, including proposals to build 30 thousand new homes.
Weymouth Town Council have submitted what they're calling a very strong response.
They've focused on the affordability of local homes for local people, and what they see is the need for more employment land in the Weymouth, Portland and Chickerell area.
Leader of the Council, Cllr David Harris, was delighted with the response which a number of residents contributed to:
"It was really good to see so many people taking part and contributing their views. Fortunately, the vast majority of them felt that the council was on the right track and they supported the line we were taking. "
Cllr Northam commented:
"The hard work was well worth it as we have a very strong response to send to Dorset Council. We are looking forward to working with them to help clarify some of the anomalies that were present in the plan as they affect this marvellous town. Our strap line is 'Local Jobs and Local Homes for Local people'."
