Engagement
The City Plan 2040 Development Plan Scheme includes a participation statement which shows how we are planning to engage with people and when they can get involved in the City Plan 2040 process.
Here you will find details of any current engagement activities and what is coming up so you know when and how you can be involved.
Evidence Report
We are currently preparing our Evidence Report and we intend to complete this by June 2026. We will not be consulting on the Evidence Report itself.
Place Engagement
We are asking people about where they live – what's good and what could be better- so we can get a good understanding of the different areas of Edinburgh and what we might need to plan for.
Questionnaire
The questionnaire covers the important things that make a good place such as homes, local shops and services, healthcare, public transport, open space, play facilities, community space and jobs

Call for Ideas
This provides an opportunity for everyone - people, communities, stakeholders, businesses, developers and landowners - to put forward suggestions and ideas for City Plan 2040.
This could be new policies, sites for development, proposed uses for sites or ideas to improve an area.
This will take place around July to September 2026.
