March Update.

The Ickford Neighbourhood Plan has now successfully passed through screening with
AVDC. Which means we can now commence a period of public consultation in accordance
with the 2012 Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations (Regulation 14). The
formal consultation will be for a period of six weeks from Monday 8th April to Wednesday
22nd May 2019.

The Draft Plan and accompanying documents are available via a link on the Parish
Council website: https://ickfordcommunity.com or via www.visionforickford.co.uk.

There is also a Draft Plan comment form. You can also make any comments by e-mail
to info@visionforickford.co.uk or letter to any member of the INP committee. It is
hoped that as many people as possible will use electronic means to read the plan and
submit comments in the interests of efficiency and the environment. There will also be
a clearly marked box in the Village Shop for those who prefer to submit a hard copy of
their comment sheet.

We will also be holding a drop in session in the Pavillion on Saturday 11 May 2019
th
attended by members of the steering group from 10am to 3pm. It must be stressed
that no new information will be available at this session but we do invite you to attend
and discuss the plan with us.

Following revision to reflect consultation responses, it is hoped that the Neighbourhood
Plan will be submitted to the Aylesbury Vale District Council in early June. An examination
by the council is likely by the end of July and it is anticipated that a local referendum
will be held in September. In the meantime, it is important that as many people and
organisations comment on the draft plan during this consultation.
