Update on The Highams Park Plan

We continue to move forward with the Plan and are now in the final phases before it goes to a formal referendum of Highams Park Residents.  This referendum will be organised by the Council and will lead to the Plan’s final approval.

Latest Draft of the Highams Park Plan (HP Plan)

Following the informal consultation undertaken by the Highams Park Planning Group in March /May 2017, the HP Plan has been amended and discussed with Council Planning Officers, however, before formally submitting the HP Plan to the Council we intend to have the plan reviewed by independent planning consultants to ensure that we have complied with all the necessary requirements under the Localism Act in relation to Neighbourhood Plans.

Once we have received the report from the independent consultants we shall formally submit the HP Plan to the Council for formal consultation of residents and subsequent referendum as soon as possible.

We are not seeking further comments on the HP Plan at this stage as people will be invited to comment on the formal submission draft of the HP Plan when the Council run their formal consultation later in 2018.
