Harlestone Neighbourhood Development Plan 


What is the Harlestone Neighbourhood Plan?

Harlestone Parish Council through the Neighbourhood Plan steering group have worked with the community and statutory bodies to produce a Neighbourhood Plan for the area. The Neighbourhood Plan sets out policies to shape future development in the area.

Following a majority vote in favour on the Harlestone Neighbourhood Plan in a referendum held on 20 April 2023, it is now "made" and will be used to determine planning applications in the Neighbourhood Area alongside existing planning policy.


The post referendum decision statement, adoption notice and the made version of the Neighbourhood Plan are available below:

Staverton Neighbourhood Development Plan 2018-2029

The referendum on Staverton Neighbourhood Development Plan took place on 27 June 2019. As more than half of those voting, had not voted in favour of the neighbourhood plan, the Staverton Neighbourhood Development Plan was not 'made'. Consequently, no weight can be attached to the neighbourhood plan.
