Newton Longville Neighbourhood Plan submission consultation

Overview

We want to hear the views of local residents and organisations on the Neighbourhood Plan for Newton Longville.

In September 2014, the Parish of Newton Longville was designated a neighbourhood area by Buckinghamshire Council. This followed an application by Newton Longville Parish Council.

Newton Longville Parish Council has now completed a period of local community engagement on the Newton Longville Neighbourhood Plan and have submitted the final version to us.

The next stage of the process is for us, as the local authority, to carry out a public consultation on the submitted plan.

This is the final opportunity for local people to comment on the plan before it goes to independent examination.

The Newton Longville Neighbourhood Plan includes policies to shape local development to:

• establish and define a settlement boundary 
• allocate housing sites 
• influence housing mix 
• promote energy efficient buildings 
• protect and conserve the conservation area and local heritage 
• designate local green spaces 
• protect and enhance the green infrastructure network 
• protect public rights of way 
• protect and enhance community facilities 
• encourage and support local businesses 
• introduce areas of separation to prevent coalescence
• influence transport and parking

You will need to provide your name and address when responding as planning law states that we cannot accept anonymous comments.

Please make sure we receive your comments by 11:59pm on Thursday 30 May 2024. We cannot consider any comments received after that deadline.

What happens next

Following consultation, we will collate the responses and submit them to an independent examiner.

The examiner will consider public comments and ensure the plan meets the basic conditions in the Localism Act and other relevant regulations.

If the plan passes independent examination, the next stage is a local referendum to see whether it has community support.

If the neighbourhood plan is supported, we will adopt it as part of local planning policy to assess planning applications in the neighbourhood area.
