Stage 2: Main Issues Report

The Main issues Report (MIR) was a key step towards the preparation of a new Local Development Plan. It set out a series of preferred options for future development throughout East Dunbartonshire, across a range of issues.

Early engagement and consultation was carried out between 3 December 2018 and 11 February 2019.
