A paper version will also be made available at our main First Point (Howden House).  The consultation report will remain a public document for the duration that the Sheffield Plan is an adopted planning document (this is likely to be until 2035, although there will be scheduled reviews of the document put in place).

We will hold your details until the adoption of the Sheffield Plan (This is scheduled in our adopted Local Development Scheme for 2018). After adoption we will review details of our contact list and delete contacts where it is appropriate.
