Our Neighbourhood Plan

The Teversal, Stanton Hill and Skegby Neighbourhood Plan is a new type of planning document prepared by Teversal, Stanton Hill and Skegby Neighbourhood Forum on behalf of its residents.

The Plan is a legal planning policy document and must be used by:
a) planners at Ashfield District Council in assessing planning applications
b) applicants as they prepare planning applications for submission to Ashfield District Council

The Neighbourhood Plan will work alongside Ashfield District Council’s Local Plan to regulate development, promote positive change and protect the Area’s assets.
