The East Lammermuir community has developed an ambitious Local Place Plan, shaped through extensive community engagement and a built on through a series of themed workshops. This has resulted in four key community priorities: biodiversity restoration, active travel, energy efficiency, and community transport. These priorities are supported by five detailed reports, which provide the evidence base and practical recommendations to guide delivery.
