About 64 people had attended the event on 11th October 2014 when concerns about fluvial flooding, and a mixture of views both for and against development were received but overall the indications were that the community was largely in support of the growth of the village. Mr Gluck outlined some key dates for progressing the NDP as follows: 6th November 2014 NDP Steering Group (to be Chaired by Councillor Oliver) to consider sites to focus on taking account of East Riding Council’s Local Plan Site Assessment criteria. November 2014 Meeting to be arranged with Environment Agency/Yorkshire Water/Internal Drainage re drainage issues. End of November 2014 NDP Steering Group to receive first draft report. Parish Council will then sign-off the draft report for informal consultation with stakeholders and the community. It was anticipated that if the project proceeds as planned a Referendum on the Woodmansey Village Neighbourhood Plan would be held in early to mid-July 2015 prior to the holiday period. Mr Gluck stated that he would prepare a budget for the necessary consultancy work against the existing Locality grant funding and supply details to the Clerk and flagged up that whilst a Sustainability Appraisal could be carried out by the consultancy team if a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment was required external help would need to be brought in at additional cost. Members suggested that in terms of future consultation consideration should be given to a range of venues other than just the Village Hall (i.e. the School/Sheltered Housing/local Public House).
