About this Event
Join us for our popular Introduction to Neighbourhood Planning For Local Councils webinar workshop. Alison Eardley, planning consultant, will be leading the session for us.
This is a draft programme that is subject to change due to time constraints etc.
The Course aims to help towns and parishes thinking about starting, or struggling with, neighbourhood plans. It covers the following:
• What is neighbourhood planning and what does it cover?
• How does neighbourhood planning fit into the wider planning system?
• What’s involved in making a Neighbourhood Plan?: a step by step guide
• Neighbourhood Development Orders
• The legal basis for planning decisions
• Is it worth the effort?
This is a workshop that is suitable for both new and returning Councillors (and interested Officers) and will appeal especially to those involved in the Local Council Planning Process.
Kent Association of Local Councils uses its website and Eventbrite to announce its events so that delegates can choose the workshop or conference they wish to attend. At the present time, all our events are delivered online via the Zoom video conferencing programme, which we find suits everyone’s needs for when we cannot deliver traditional face to face venue events. Both Eventbrite and Zoom are easy to use with a few simple pointers.
We will always send out a “flyer” to inform our membership of upcoming events, so look out for them in your inbox.
There will always be a hyperlink for you to click on, which will direct you to our website in the first place.
The date and time will be shown here, with a brief description of the event. Click on the relevant link and that will take you straight to the Eventbrite booking page for the event you would like to join.
We strongly encourage individual Councillors to sign up for an event via the Clerk to the Council. However, when that is not possible, please check with your clerk before booking your own place.
There are two sections that need to be completed. One is the “ticket buyer” - this is the Clerk or Responsible Finance Officer. Invoices are generated automatically from the site, so you should know what is payable to KALC immediately. You should insert the name and contact details of the Clerk/RFO here so they receive our invoice at once. KALC no longer sends out invoices for Training and Events.
The second section refers to the “Attendee”. This is for the individual who will be attending the event. It is particularly important that the email address for that person is entered and is correct as this is where all joining instructions will be sent. Do double check the form before you hit the “Send” button.
If all your details are correct, you will receive a notification via Eventbrite (not KALC) one week before and again within 48 hours of the event that informs you of:
The date and time of registration
What you might need to read beforehand and any links that will provide that information
The joining instructions - a link to the Zoom account and Meeting ID should that fail.
We also provide contact details so that if you encounter any issue on the day, we can help you as much as possible.
That should mean that you get the best outcome from attending one of our online courses.
We are always happy to help if you have any problems in booking your place but hope that this guide will help you to book an event at your own leisure.
