Statement of Community Involvement

The Statement of Community Involvement sets out how and when the Council will involve the community and other interested people and organisations ('stakeholders') in the preparation of its planning policy documents, and also in the consideration of planning applications in Woking.

An updated Statement of Community Involvement (SCI) was adopted by the Council on 15 July 2011. This document replaces the previous SCI which was adopted by the Council in February 2007. The was updated so that it is in line with the changes the Government have made to planning legislation and the associated regulations in 2009. The Council consulted on the revised document for nine weeks from 5 November 2010 to 7 January 2011.

A paper copy of the Statement of Community Involvement can be viewed at the Civic Offices, Borough libraries or on request from the Planning Policy team.
