DATCHET NOW HAS A NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN!
|
Since 2011 the Government has encouraged local communities to produce a Neighbourhood Plan
to give us all the chance to have a say in our area's future development and growth. Thanks to the help, support, and input from the community, Datchet's Neighbourhood Plan has been successful at a public referendum on 4 May 2023 and adopted by RBWM on 27 June 2021. It will now be used to help decide planning applications in our area. REGULATION 14 & 16 CONSULTATIONS & EXAMINER'S REPORT
Very many thanks to everyone who commented at last year's public consulations.
