Foxton Neighbourhood Plan

Temporary Suspension  - Foxton Neighbourhood Plan Consultation: In response to Covid-19 restrictions, the consultation on Foxton Neighbourhood Plan (Submission public consultation - Regulation 16) has been temporarily suspended. It was due to close at 5pm on the 28 April 2020. This is to ensure that the full terms of the current regulatory requirements can be met. Representations made up to this point will still be counted, and we will we notify those who have already responded. We will also let them know when the consultation re-opens in case they wish to amend or submit further comments. Reflecting the fact that two weeks were completed prior to current Government restrictions, when the consultation re-opens it is anticipated that it will run for a period of an additional 4 weeks to ensure the full 6 weeks are available. We will keep the situation under review, including any further guidance received from Government on Neighbourhood Planning processes during these challenging times.

The Neighbourhood Plan can be viewed on Foxton Parish Council's website.
