Residents in the south of the Island are being invited to comment on plans for future development in their towns, villages and countryside.
A first step's been taken in the creation of a Southern Area plan - the first in a new generation of plans which will eventually cover the whole Island.
Its first report 'Issues and Options' has just been published.
500 local residents put their views forward on topics from housing, transport and business to tourism and sport.
Previously, towns created their own plans.
But Chief Executive at the Department of Local Government Ken Kinrade (pictured) says the new system makes more sense:
Government plans to withdraw interest from reserve fund no longer required
Medical cannabis should be 'holistic', says pharmacistÂ
Peel Commissioners not adding 'discretionary' one percent increase to social housing rents
New organ donation laws set to come into force in coming weeks
