The Neighbourhood Development Plan needs updating if it is to hold water.

A review therefore began in September 2024 but could take a year or more to complete.

The review steering group comprises interested residents and parish councillors and is supported by the Planning Consultant, Andrea Long.

There are Terms of Reference for the Steering Group.

The composition of the steering group:

John Kelsall (Chairman)

Hilary Day

Cindy Engel

Sharon Lytton

Sheena McCallum

Chris Mee

Nick Stolls

Sharon Wilson

The steering group will invite public consultation at the appropriate time but there is much preparation to be done before that. 

An outline of the timetable is currently looking like this but is subject to change.
