Fife Council has launched a public consultation, inviting residents, businesses, and organizations to contribute ideas and propose sites for inclusion in the next Local Development Plan, known as Fife's Place Plan.

The council is calling on community councils, landowners, and developers to share their vision for how land across Fife could be used for housing, employment, infrastructure, community spaces and environmental projects.

A call for sites and ideas portal is now open, with the consultation running for 14 weeks until noon on 24 February 2025. Full details and submission guidelines are available at www.fife.gov.uk/FPP.

The input gathered will help shape the development plan, guiding how land is used to support Fife’s growth and sustainability in the years to come.

Councillor Altany Craik, Fife Council's Spokesperson for Finance, Economy & Strategic Planning, said: "We look forward to receiving your ideas for Fife’s future. This consultation is an invitation for individuals, communities, landowners, developers and other organisations to share ideas, identify development opportunities, and help us address key issues like housing, infrastructure, and community use.

"The call for sites will help us to update our evidence base of potentially suitable and available land for diverse purposes. As part of our commitment towards reducing our impact on the environment, we’re also looking for suggestions about land that’s suitable for nature recovery, biodiversity or carbon offsetting."
