  • Great Denham Neighbourhood Development Plan
    Great Denham Neighbourhood Development Plan Welcome to our first Neighbourhood Plan newsletter! Writing a Neighbourhood Plan for our community is a real opportunity for everyone who lives and works in Great Denham to put into planning policy how they would like to see the area develop, including influencing: • the services and facilities there are, and to suggest any improvements needed; • how any future development is done and how it integrates into the existing community; • how future requirements of energy, technology and sustainability are embraced; and • how we protect the environment, green spaces and the ecology and biodiversity of the area. Getting a Neighbourhood Development Plan ready can take some time – we have set ourselves the target of submitting the Great Denham Plan for referendum and adoption within 2 years. Once supported by referendum and adopted it will become a legally binding document for planning purposes. This first newsletter sets out the initial vision and principles for our Plan, and the areas that we currently think we should be focusing on, along with some initial ideas on how those elements could become policies within the Plan. We need your views Want to get involved? Our first survey in Summer 2020 gave us an initial view from We know that in our residents. It is important that we continue to ask and get your community we have a rich feedback so that the policies and ideas in our plan represent Great variety of experience, expertise, Denham residents. That way we can all be confident that, once interests, hobbies or useful legally adopted, the Great Denham Neighbourhood Development contacts.
