NOTICE OF PUBLICITY OF A NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN PROPOSAL

Eglingham Parish Council has prepared a Draft Neighbourhood Development Plan for the Eglingham Neighbourhood Area. The Plan proposes a number of planning policies which, once adopted, must be used in the determination of planning applications within the Parish.

An Environmental Report has been prepared which considers the impact that introducing the policies in the Plan may have on the environment.

The Parish Council is required to publicise the Draft Plan and invite comments. Copies of the Plan plus supporting documents and Environmental Report will be available for public inspection for a period of not less than six weeks commencing at 9 a.m. on Tuesday 25th April 2023 and ending at 5.30 p.m. on Wednesday 7th June 2023.

These documents can be viewed on the Eglingham Neighbourhood Plan website at:

Any person or organisation may comment on the Plan, supporting documents and Environmental Report.

Representations must be made in writing either by email to eglinghamclerk@gmail.com or by post to: The Clerk, Eglingham P.C. c/o The Croft, 32 South Charlton, Alnwick, Northumberland NE66 2NA.

All representations must be received by the Parish Council no later than 5.30 p.m. on Wednesday 7th June 2023.
