A Neighbourhood Plan is a document that sets out planning policies for a local community area.

Its written by local people, who know best the priorities for development in the area (what and where)

​

The plan is informed by consultation in the community, and provided it follows certain rules consistent with national and local authority plans, is approved by the council and in a referendum - it becomes part of the official planning policies for the area.

​

Where a Neighbourhood Plan is in place the Parish receives 25% of a Community Infrastructure Levy, which is a charge applied to developers when planning permission is granted to support investment in new infrastructure (without it a maximum of 15% goes to the Parish, and it could be less if capped)

​

The plan covers a period of about 15 years, ideally aligned with the timescale of the local authority plan.
