MYLOR NDP REGULATION 14 DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION Mylor Parish Neighbourhood Development Plan Our future, our plan MYLOR NDP REGULATION 14 DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION As part of the initial consultation exercise, children from the local primary schools were asked to picture what they liked and what they wanted for their future. MYLOR NDP REGULATION 14 DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION FOREWORD Many volunteers have worked together for more than two years to produce this Neighbourhood Development Plan for Mylor Parish. It is the result of consultations with the community through surveys, events, meetings with stakeholders and residents, and the gathering of research and information. The Parish Council commissioned the Plan and we are confident that everything in it reflects the wishes and priorities of our communities. It expresses our shared vision for the Parish up to 2030, with planning policies that state what the community supports in terms of affordable housing for young and growing families and older residents, improvements to infrastructure and facilities, support to help local businesses thrive and measures to ensure that our beautiful landscapes, environment and wildlife are protected. When the Plan is adopted by Cornwall Council, following a referendum in 2020, it will form the first level of planning law, ensuring that future developments are shaped by the wishes of our community. We are proud of our Plan and grateful to everyone who has contributed their ideas and opinions. This is our future and our Plan.
