Information about the neighbourhood plan for Syderstone Parish
Latest News
Regulation 16
Syderstone Parish Council submitted their Neighbourhood Plan to the council on 21 February 2025 in accordance with the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012, Regulation 15. We have reviewed the submitted documentation and can confirm this meets the requirements of Regulation 15.
As the relevant local planning authority, we are now required to consult on the submitted Neighbourhood Plan prior in advance of an independent examination, under Regulation 16.
The consultation will last seven weeks from Monday 24 March 2025 until 11:59pm on Monday 12 May 2025 (inclusive). This is a week longer than the statutory minimum (6 weeks), to take account of the Easter and May Bank Holidays. Responses will be given directly to the examiner to determine if the plan meets the “basic conditions”, the statutory tests that a Neighbourhood Plan needs to fulfil.
The Neighbourhood Plan and other submission documents are available below.
