OAKLEY'S NDP

The Parish Council registered with the Borough Council to produce its own Neighbourhood Plan and set up a sub-group consisting of Parish Councillors and interested residents in 2014. The sub-group developed the Neighbourhood Plan based on responses to questionnaires from residents, exhibitions at the Village Hall, other people who had a stake in the village, technical evaluations and national/local government guidelines/policies.
