To all Parishioners in Hough, Gelston and Brandon

Hough on the Hill Parish Neighbourhood Plan Public Consultation 8 Jul till 19 Aug 24.

Following advice from SKDC the Parish Council instructed a professional firm of Planners to make some minor amendments to the Neighbourhood Plan.

Whilst under normal circumstances these amendments would not require Public Consultation (Footnote1) the PC has decided that it would be appropriate for Parishioners to have sight of the Amendments before the modified Neighbourhood Plan is submitted to South Kesteven District Council.

The consultation will be for 6 weeks - 8 Jul–19 Aug 2024.  Two hard copies of the Plan will be available in All Saints Church in Hough and a soft copy will be on the website.

Should Parishioners wish to comment then they are to e-mail the Hough, Brandon and Gelston Parish Clerk - Donna Lang.

Thank you
The Parish Council

Footnote1: It is considered that the amendments being proposed fall into the category of “minor (non-material)" modifications that do not materially affect the policies in the Neighbourhood Plan. Government Guidance on Neighbourhood Planning advises that consultation, examination and referendum are not statutorily required when changes of this type are being made.
