Sutton upon Derwent Parish Council Chair: Mr P Kirby, 6 St. Vincent Close, Sutton upon Derwent, York, YO41 4BW email:- [email protected] Clerk: Mrs V Nicholson, Peace Cottage, Main Street, Sutton on Derwent, York, YO41 4BT Tel:- 01904 607434 email:- [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- East Riding of Yorkshire Council Planning Dept County Hall Beverley East Riding of Yorkshire June 1st 2013 Dear Sirs, RE;- Sutton upon Derwent Neighbourhood Plan Sutton upon Derwent Parish Council, after careful deliberation, have decided that it would be in the interests of our community to formulate a Neighbourhood Plan. The Parish Council wish to inform East Riding of Yorkshire Council of this decision and to formally ask for agreement from the ERYC Planning Dept for their approval to commence this project and to agree the boundaries covered by the plan as defined below. Proposed boundaries of the area covered by the plan. Sutton upon Derwent is a small village in the extreme north west of the county. The Parish has been designated as officially a ""village" in the latest Strategic Plan and therefore only certain types of development is to be allowed outside the village development line. This means that many of the issues to be dealt with will concern open spaces outside of the main village area. The Parish Council therefore propose that the area of the Neighbourhood Plan will be the whole area of the Parish as enclosed by the Parish Boundary. This area is defined on the attached plan. Qualifying Body No neighbourhood forums or other qualifying bodies have been identified within the Parish and therefore the Parish Council contend that, as duly elected representatives of the Parish, they are the sole qualifying body, capable and entitled to lead the process of preparing a Neighbourhood Plan. Yours sincerely Peter Kirby Chairman, Sutton upon Derwent Parish Council ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Website: www.suttonuponderwent.org.uk Legend Proposed Sutton upon Derwent Neighbourhood Area 1:20,000 [ Map prepared by: Forward Planning Date: 27/06/2013 This map is reproduced from Ordnance Survey material with the permission of Ordnance Survey on behalf of Her Majesty's Stationery Office Crown Copyright 2012.
