.....................................................................................................76 Executive Summary The Draft Great Aycliffe Neighbourhood Plan (GANP) sets out the vision, objectives and policies to ensure the Parish of Great Aycliffe maintains its uniqueness over the period 2016 to 2036. Our vision is - “To make Great Aycliffe a vibrant community the Neighbourhood Plan will seek to enhance the natural environment, support and encourage high quality housing, local jobs and improved retail and leisure facilities in a healthy, green and attractive town” The Great Aycliffe Neighbourhood Plan has been drawn up by a Steering Group and Thematic Groups made up of Town Councillors and local residents, working under the guidance of Great Aycliffe Town Council which is the designated body for the plan area and provided the funding and support to enable the plan to go ahead. This Neighbourhood Plan has been reviewed by residents and key stakeholders through an extensive consultation process. All comments and suggestions received as part of this consultation will be carefully considered and if viable and/or suitable the Neighbourhood Plan will be amended accordingly. The Neighbourhood Plan sets down a series of planning policies which, once adopted by means of a parish referendum, will ultimately form part of County Durham’s wider statutory development plan when it has been adopted. The Neighbourhood Plan must go to an Independent Examination and will finally be subjected to a local parish referendum requiring a majority “yes” vote of all those voting in the referendum for it to be accepted. In the event of a “yes” vote, Durham County Council will proceed to “make” the Neighbourhood Plan for the Parish of Great Aycliffe. It is intended that the policies will be reviewed every 5 years to monitor the cumulative effects of the policies and, if necessary, make changes to keep them up to date and relevant. This will be undertaken in conjunction with the Planning Authority, Durham County Council. The objectives our planning policies are aiming to achieve are: Environment Objective 1 To protect and retain the traditional green areas, open spaces and environment for the community. Objective 2 To alleviate existing, overwhelming parking problems whilst allowing grass to be retained as the dominant finish.
