Bradleys Both neighbourhood development plan information statement

A referendum relating to the Bradleys Both neighbourhood plan will be held on Thursday 27 July 2023.

The question which will be asked in the referendum is: 

"Do you want North Yorkshire Council to use the neighbourhood plan for Bradleys Both to help it decide planning applications in the neighbourhood area?"

The referendum area is identified on the map which is included with this information statement. The referendum area is identical to the area which has been designated as the Bradleys Both Neighbourhood Plan Area. 

A person is entitled to vote in the referendum if:

• they are entitled to vote in an election of any Councillor of North Yorkshire Council whose area is in the referendum area
• their qualifying address for the election is in the referendum area - a person's qualifying address is, in relation to a person registered in the register of electors, the address in respect of which they are entitled to be so registered

The referendum expenses limit that will apply in relation to the referendum is £2,419.05. The number of persons entitled to vote in the referendum by reference to which that limit has been calculated is 967. 

The referendum will be conducted in accordance with procedures which are similar to those used at local government elections.
