Neighbourhood Planning in North Kingston

Neighbourhood Planning in North Kingston

North Kingston Forum is currently preparing a neighbourhood plan for North Kingston. The North Kingston Neighbourhood Plan, once finalised, will inform landlords, developers, investors and our planning committee about the characteristics, unique challenges and opportunities across North Kingston.

Next Steps

Once the North Kingston Forum has prepared their plan, they will submit the draft plan to the Council. The Council will run a further consultation (Regulation 16 stage) on the draft plan before it is considered by an independent inspector, and then, if the plan is found to be acceptable, it can be adopted only after a referendum has been held within the plan's area.

If there is a majority vote in favour, the Council has to 'make' the neighbourhood plan (it is brought into force) and it becomes part of the development plan for the area, which means that it has to be taken into account in planning decisions.

For information about the content or timescales of the neighbourhood plan itself, please contact North Kingston Forum via their website.
