Projects Identified as Important to the Parish, to be Pursued by the Parish Council, Through Various Funding Sources Including Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) 53 2 1 Background to the Plan 1.1 The Localism Act 2011 promoted neighbourhood engagement in the planning process. It introduced a new kind of Plan, called a Neighbourhood Development Plan (or Neighbourhood Plan, for short), that could be prepared by Parish Councils. One of the key aims of the legislation is to enable people to contribute to the long term development of their own community. A Neighbourhood Plan can make a real difference to how development is carried out in the Parish, because once it has been through all the stages of preparation and been “made” (adopted) by Lichfield District Council (LDC), it becomes part of the District’s Development Plan, alongside the LDC Local Plan. Its planning policies will therefore be used in the decision-making process when planning applications within the Parish are considered by the Local Planning Authority. This Neighbourhood Plan supports the delivery of strategic policies contained in the Lichfield District Local Plan in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework 2019 para 13.

Apologies for Absence 2. Declarations of Interest 3. Minutes of Previous Meeting 3 - 12 4. Community Governance Review (Verbal Presentation by the Director of Transformation & Resources – Mr Neil Turner) The district council is, from time to time, required to undertake a Community Governance Review. A Community Governance Review helps ensure that parish councils clearly represent identifiable local communities, that their members reflect the communities that they serve, that residents are equally represented on their council, and that good, efficient local government is promoted. A Community Governance Review has the power to establish or group parish councils, to alter the boundaries of parishes, to create or amend ward boundaries within parishes, and to increase or reduce the number of parish councillors. The council intends to undertake a Community Governance Review of the district and this is our first opportunity to discuss how we intend to approach this work and how we hope to involve parish councils and members.

    Longdon Neighbourhood Plan Initial Consultation – 14/ 19/ 22 .10.13 Themed comments Character Happy with village as it is Concerned that Armitage developments are getting ever closer to Longdon Do not spoil the brand image of an aspirational village It’s a nice and quiet place to live New building must be in keeping with rural feel. Like small village feel – no reason to change New development must respect / maintain rural feel What I love about Longdon – quaintness / quiet; away from busy Lichfield and towns; countryside and views - cute Village. Do not build in Longdon Green -if I want to live in a busy area I'll move to Chasetown or Lichfield Need to strike the right balance between rural character of village(s) and the need for local housing Concern about the changing face of the countryside and loss of farming to the area; once a farm is lost it never comes back. Noted that farms have had to change especially after foot and mouth. Concern that there has been a loss of farming infrastructure to housing. Barns to housing. This has an impact on the rural character of the area. Community People all know each other Community spirit will be galvanized if a challenge is perceived Ages in villages on a ‘conveyor belt’ They consider themselves commuters Unaware of OWL for Neighborhood watch Increasing housing causes concern – wrong elements coming into the village Lack of a community feel.
