Local Place Plan

Shaping the future of Broadford & Strath

Working together to shape the future of our area.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the Broadford and Strath Local Place Plan. The plan has now been validated by The Highland Council in accordance with Scottish Government Local Place Plan provisions.

The Broadford and Strath Local Place Plan will be made available to various teams within The Highland Council. These will include the Housing Development Team, Environment Team, Highland Community Planning Partnership’s Partnership Development Team, Economy & Regeneration, Community Support and Engagement, and the Team Ward Manager. These teams will help support our community in the delivery of our Local Place Plan.

The Broadford and Strath Local Place Plan has also been added to The Highland Council Local Place Plans register.

Local Place Plans are community-led plans setting out proposals for the development and use of land and buildings. The Scottish Government introduced Local Place Plans as a way for local communities to think about how to make their place better, to agree priorities, and to work with others, including public authorities and other public sector bodies, to take action for change.

During 2024 Broadford & Strath Community Company worked with Broadford & Strath Community Council to coordinate a Local Place Plan for Broadford & Strath. Supported by community representatives consultation and activities were held to invite views on land use and priorities in our area. These included ‘Place Plan Pop-up’ drop in sessions, an online survey, meetings with local organisations, and activities with local pupils and youth groups.
