Following the launch meeting, 4 areas have been identified as priority and sub-groups are being set up for each:
Green Spaces. This will include protecting and enhancing the areas of green, so would cover how we can prevent fouling of these spaces, what we can do to make areas like Farm Close orchard a better amenity and support for ongoing initiatives like bulb plant around the ward and the Thieves Lane Community Garden
Transport & Rights of Way. To include road safety, traffic calming, maintenance and opening of footpaths and bridleways, street lighting and public transport – anything to do with how we move around the ward.
Planning and Development. A core part of the Neighbourhood Plan is ensuring that the planning criteria are enforced and that development is sustainable and supports the objectives of the Neighbourhood Plan. This group would be able to comment formally on planning applications and identify any conflicts with the Neighbourhood Plan.
Assets and Infrastructure. Supporting our shops, public services, businesses and community organisations and making sure the community is well served now and in the future
