From RSN Online – www.rsnonline.org.uk Rural communities shape local development Neighbourhood planning is a key part of the government's localism agenda, aiming to give local people a major say in shaping development in their area. Using Neighbourhood Development Orders communities will be able to help determine where development should go and decide the type and design of developments granted automatic planning permission. The system formally commences later this year. This brings to 233 the number of 'frontrunner' communities that have been working up plans and testing out neighbourhood planning. Local to the Cotswolds are Faringdon, Calne (Wiltshire), Kempsey (Malvern DC), Honeybourne, Cleeve Prior and Pebworth (all in Wychavon DC). Communities minister Bob Neill said there had been "enormous interest" in neighbourhood planning. "The large number of communities jumping at the chance to trial these new powers demonstrates the enthusiasm people have for this local approach to planning. For the first time communities will be in the driving seat and allowed to shape the way they want their area to develop instead of having a vision imposed upon them from above. "Neighbourhood planning encourages people to plan positively for their future and is a real opportunity to deliver the homes and jobs communities need to thrive." The local councils of successful front runners have been given £20,000 per project to help their communities with neighbourhood planning. 12 Qualified gardener • Specialist Pruning Telephone: 01386 700903 • E-mail: nickplantsperson@btinternet.com Promoting Stow and its businesses. 45,000 visits last year; Is your business listed?
