Producing a Statement of Community Involvement
Purpose
This Action List provides practical assistance for local authority planners producing either an SCI or CIS and, in England, is also relevant to private sector planners consulting on significant planning applications. This module is a companion to the highly successful RTPI courses, Managing community involvement (Advanced) www.rtpiconferences.co.uk/25349 and Best practice community involvement www.rtpiconferences.co.uk/25350. Please ring Tel 0845 120 9602 for further information.”
Benefits
Planners frequently go beyond minimum requirements thinking creatively about how best to involve communities in plan making and development proposals. This more participatory and inclusive approach to planning fits within broader government objectives of civic renewal and greater public involvement in decision making – so understanding how to produce an effective SCI is a useful planning tool.
Audience
Urban and regional planners and all those wishing to build and assess their knowledge of the topic.
Learning method
A detailed checklist offering a series of actions to take in producing an SCI or CIS plus a portfolio of useful and relevant websites. Additionally a comprehensive range of further reading is provided for those who wish to become expert in the subject. Includes voluntary self assessment for recording continuous professional development (CPD).
