Why your views matter

A Public consultation is taking place between Monday 20th October to Sunday 30th November on the draft CAAMP to seek your views.  

Local knowledge is vital for the preparation of the CAAMP. We are particularly interested in understanding why you think the Penrith conservation area is of special interest and what opportunities you think there are for enhancing the conservation area. We are also interested in your opinion on the changes being considered to the boundary of the conservation area.  

Any representations made during the consultation period will be considered and, where appropriate, will be incorporated into the final document.  

If you would like more information about the consultation please email Paula Sada at conservation2@westmorlandandfurness.gov.uk
