31 July 2025: Consultation on a proposed Terrington Neighbourhood Plan

We are consulting on a proposal for a Terrington Neighbourhood Plan.

In accordance with Regulation 16 of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012, the consultation is taking place to bring the plan proposal to the attention of those who live, work or carry on business in the parish and to allow any interest parties to make representations.

The consultation is taking place from Thursday 31 July to 11.59pm on Thursday 25 September.

The proposed neighbourhood plan, supporting documents and further information about the consultation, including how to take part and where documents can be viewed, is available on our planning policy consultation portal.

Following the consultation, we will arrange an independent examination of the plan. All representations received during this consultation will be sent to an independent examiner who will consider whether the plan meets the ‘basic conditions’ and other legal requirements. Further information about the examination will be added to this page following the consultation.
