Scottish Directors of Planning

Directors Of Planning And The Garden Festival

The directors of planning for Scotland are involved in many important decisions that affect them. If they would like to plan something like a garden festival in Scotland it would have to go through them as well. No one originally understood what they were trying to do when they formed the Scottish Planning directors but they had a dream of helping and that is what they have done.

Many things have been accomplished with planning of events, activities, festivals, and even improvement plans all around Scotland. Some events that have been planned through HoPs includes

• Access 2 Learning
• Improvement Service Events
• Commonwealth Games 2014
• Scottish Renewables Planning Conferences
• RICS Lunchtime CPD Series
• RTPI Conferences 2011

These have been important events in the history of Scotland and HoPs was beneficial in getting these planned and started. If you would like the idea of a garden festivals in Scotland yearly you will want to speak with the Heads of Planning Scotland or HoPs. They can point you in the right direction to how to get started with planning an annual event such as a Garden Festival.  They have also been beneficial in the design and reconstruction of streets all around Scotland. Especially those where the Glasgow City Council Commonwealth Games of 2014 will be held. When something like a garden festival comes up as an idea, they work together to figure out how to go about planning in out in the best possible way. There have been many; much improvement since HoPs was formed in 1975 as well. They are a beneficial part of the Scottish Government and should not be taken for granted. In order to get anything improved around Scotland they play a role in the decision making process.
