Have your say on the Somerset Local Plan – Scoping Consultation launched

Published: 21 June 2026

The Local Plan is being prepared under a new plan-making system, so the consultation may look a little different from ones you have taken part in before.

Somerset Council want to hear your views on:

• What matters the Local Plan should cover
• How we should engage with you
• Our proposed vision and outcomes
• The hierarchy of settlements
• Draft spatial strategy options
• The draft Sustainability Appraisal of those options

Your feedback will help shape the future of Somerset.
