Neighbourhood Plan for Marbury, Norbury and Wirswall

This page is where you can find out how our Neighbourhood Plan is progressing and have your say. 

Our Neighbourhood Plan

We have reached the stage of producing a draft Neighbourhood Plan.  The draft plan has been sent to Cheshire East Neighbourhood Planning Team for their feedback and to review our next steps.

Our Neighbourhood Plan allows us to have a voice in the future planning of our community. The plan includes a description of our Parish, Vision and Objectives and detailed planning policies covering the protection of the countryside, heritage, housing, the local economy, building design, tourism, recreation and local telecommunications infrastructure.

Our Neighbourhood Plan has to be in conformity with national planning policy and the Cheshire East Local Plan.  Having an adopted plan means that planners must take into account our vision of what the future looks like and what is appropriate for our combined Parish.

Our plan is about ‘land use’, what the land is used for, what is supported (and what is not) and how any development fits in to our environment and how it impacts the community and other matters requiring or affecting planning consent.  Our plan does not cover issues or problems relating to the state of the roads, speed limits, litter, or public transport.

Now we are at the stage of where we need your views on the draft plan prior to a Spring Time event in Marbury Village Hall where the Neighbourhood Plan can be viewed again, explained, discussed, and further refined.
