NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN
Potential housing sites…….
Following the public meeting on 26 March 2012 the Council’s Neighbourhood Plan Working Party has agreed to publish the long-list of housing sites currently being proposed by others. Please go to our NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN section for the details.
The Parish Council wants the help of all those who live and work in the area to set out its long-term vision for the local area. With your help we are hoping to plan for the next 20 years; for new housing, new businesses, and new amenities. We want to decide on those things that the local community should preserve and those things which it wants to change for the better.
Over the next few months we shall be asking questions and listening to ideas about the future; through surveys and public meetings, and by encouraging everyone to let us know their views by letter, email and questionnaires. Questions like:
•Countryside + wildlife: How should we preserve it ? Which areas are most important and why?
•New housing: How much? What type? How quickly? Where? For which people?
•Employment: What businesses should we encourage? How? Where?
•Amenities : Are there sports and leisure places that we can make better, or add to ? Are there local services such as schools and health centres which need to change ?
• Transport: What will change over the next 20 years? How can we adapt to it?
Please look out for our newsletters which are coming through your door in the next few days, and go to the Neighbourhood Plan section of this website.
The Quality Parish Council scheme QC 12-03-00025 is a national recognition of quality of service provided by the Parish Council.
