A Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group, as an advisory sub-committee of the Parish Council, has been set up with Cllr Kendrick as the Lead Councillor on the committee. The Terms of Reference of the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group were agreed by the Parish Council on 10 July 2023.
The members of the Steering Group are: Julie Cowdy, Jane Kendrick, David Mellows-Facer, Sue Mellows-Facer, Hannah Storm and Alison Wilson.
Meetings are not public but are reported back to the Parish Council. The Group has met regularly since the first meeting in June 2023. The next meetings will take place on 21st March and 22nd April 2024.

Background
Why we need a Neighbourhood Plan
Our neighbourhood plan will be:
- A document that sets out planning policies for the Parish. Those policies are then used to decide whether to approve planning applications.
- Written by the people who love the area and know it best, rather than the local authority.
- A powerful tool to ensure the Parish gets the right types of development, in the right places.
