City Plan 2040 - Call for Ideas

Overview

This choice is for you if you are a community group, stakeholder, third sector organisation or individual.

You do not have to own the building, site or land to share an idea about it.  

Questions

The questions will ask:

  • What your idea is
  • Where it relates to
  • Why you are putting it forward
  • If there has been any engagement

You can see the questions in advance in PDF format below. Please note the questions are not in strict numerical order.

Submitting your ideas 

You can put forward up to five planning policy ideas and five ideas about a building, space, site or something you think the city needs. If you have more ideas, you will need to make another submission. 

What happens next

At this stage, nothing is fixed. We will look at all ideas as we begin to write the Proposed Plan. The ideas might be made publicly available, but we will not share anyone’s name or contact details.  

Need a different language or format?

Please email the Interpretation and Translation Service at its@edinburgh.gov.uk quoting reference 26-0659B.
