Community Right to Build

The Community Right to Build is a legal provision that allows local communities to propose and develop certain small-scale building projects, like homes or community facilities, without needing full planning permission from the government. It empowers residents to take a more active role in shaping their neighborhoods, encouraging local development that reflects their needs and wishes. Typically, this process involves community consultations and a straightforward approval process, making it easier for communities to contribute to local growth while ensuring developments are appropriate and beneficial.
