The Steering Group has sought advice from other villages and towns that are going through the same process. We have also worked closely with planning officers from Wiltshire Council and our own group of consultants. We have involved our community through open days, the village newsletter, our web site and surveys and believe this plan reflects the views of our community. A strong message from the consultations was that we are proud of our village and wish to retain its character. Any development should be in keeping with the existing village architecture and provide good access to the rest of the village. Every effort should be made to ensure the integration of any development and its population into the heart of the community. The further objectives and policies have been derived from this vision and are detailed in this plan. We believe this plan is robust and when adopted will provide the necessary guidance for the future. Finally, I want to thank members of the Hindon Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group for their hard work over a number of years, without their efforts the plan would not have been possible.
