A Quick Reminder…..
What is Neighbourhood Planning? • Provides communities with the power to make their own
planning policies to shape future development in and around where they live.
• Once made it carries statutory weight as part of the Development Plan
• A responsibility to deliver the sustainable development they need.
• A Neighbourhood Plan is a right not a requirement

Experience so far within the East Suffolk Area
• Interest in Neighbourhood Planning is growing • Key message is that it has to be the right tool
for achieving particular objectives • Is a Neighbourhood Plan wanted/needed • Mistaken belief that Parish/Town Plans are no
longer valid • A Village Review, Parish or Town Plan can be
used as a starting point

Experience so far (cont’d)
• Only when you know what the local issues are can you decide how to deal with them
• What about existing adopted policies? • Although the Council are not leading the
process it is proving time consuming

Lessons so far from the LPA perspective
• Every Plan is different • Every community undertaking one requires different
help • Clarity needed on how the local authority will deal
with each stage in the process – more proactive • Early input before you decide which type of plan you
produce • Help to define planning issues following
questionnaire responses

Lessons so far (cont’d)
• Early and continual engagement from the NP group
• Input advice/guidance on initial draft plan before consultation
• Project plans • Service Level Agreement to manage expectations • Clarity needed on how the Neighbourhood
Planning (NP) group can help the Council • Work jointly between Active Communities and
Planning Policy

Best Practice
• Look at others plans • Community support from the outset • Be clear about the level of support needed –
particularly when employing consultants • Be aware that not all questionnaire responses
can be incorporated into a Neighbourhood Plan
• Make use of the help and advice already out there
