CONSULTATION for Sedgemoor District Council's Local Plan closes this week.

The chance to have your say on the plans, which include large urban extensions to the East and West of Bridgwater, closes on Friday, March 17 at 5pm.

A spokesman for Sedgemoor District Council said: "Any new growth is always a contentious issue, that is why the next stage in the process is when all objections to the plan will be considered by an Independent Inspector at a public examination, likely to take place in later this year."

Documents can be viewed online or are available to inspect at the SDC offices at Bridgwater House, King Square, Bridgwater, Monday to Friday between 9am to 5pm, and also at public libraries in the district during normal opening hours.
