Statement of Community Involvement

Overview

Leicester City Council's Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) sets out how the council involves local residents and businesses in the preparation of planning policies and proposals for Leicester.

It also has information about how and when individuals and local communities can be involved in the preparation of planning documents and how they will be consulted on future planning applications.

However, as a result of current government coronavirus (Covid-19) guidance, we may not be able to meet some of the policies set out in the adopted Statement of Community Involvement (2019).

As a consequence, we have produced a temporary SCI addendum which sets out alternative communication and participation options for the new draft Local Plan which we plan to consult on later this year.

The temporary SCI addendum will apply while Covid-19 restrictions are in place.
