In accordance with the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 (as amended) the Wolds Villages Neighbourhood Plan and supporting documents have been submitted to Charnwood Borough Council for the purpose of consultation, examination and, if appropriate, a referendum ahead of it being ‘made’ (adopted) as part of the local plan for the area. Charnwood Borough Council has considered the Plan against the statutory requirements set out in paragraph 6 of Schedule 4B of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) and is satisfied that these have been met and it can proceed to consultation. This allows the Plan to be formally consulted upon for a period of 6 weeks from Wednesday 28th August to Wednesday 9th October 2019. Any representations that are made on the Plan will be forwarded to an independent Examiner who will then undertake an examination of the Wolds Villages Neighbourhood Plan. The Neighbourhood Plan and supporting documents are available for inspection at the following locations: Burton on the Wolds, Cotes and Prestwold Parish Council website at: https://www.burtoncotesprestwoldparishcouncil.org.uk/neighbourhood-plan.html Telephone: 01509 263151 Email: [email protected] Visit us at www.charnwood.gov.uk Leicestershire Communities website at: http://www.leicestershirecommunities.org.uk/np/the-wolds.html Burton on the Wolds, Cotes and Prestwold Parish Council Office, 7 St Andrews Close, Burton on the Wolds, Loughborough LE12 5TJ.
