An updated project plan has been produced - there has been some slippage due to a number of reasons but it is still expected that a Draft Neighbourhood Plan will be produced by the end of 2017
Following the recent overturn by the High Court of Henfield's Neighbourhood Plan it has been decided to hold a full review of the work done to date on the Ashington Neighbourhood Plan to make sure it has all been done comprehensively and that our Call for Sites and site assessment/selection strategy is acceptable. This may lead to some delay with progress. A new Neighbourhood Plan Officer has been recruited by HDC and has met with the Neighbourhood Plan Clerk & member of the Steering Group and a summary of the meeting is available.
