Your input is important for the success of the Neighbourhood Development Plan. It will help to define a shared vision of our village’s character and sustainable development for the future.
Neighbourhood Development Plans are a Government initiative. Ours is supported by Huntingdon District and Great Gransden Parish Councils. Work to collect and collate information and views is being undertaken by a steering group of volunteer residents, including some Parish Councilors, who will be available to hear your views at village events. Neighbourhood planning gives communities direct power to choose where they want new homes, shops and offices to be built, have their say on what those new buildings should look like and what infrastructure should be provided, and grant planning permission for the new buildings they want to see go ahead. Neighbourhood planning helps local people to ensure that they get the right types of development for their community, where the ambition of the neighbourhood is aligned with the strategic needs and priorities of the wider local area.
