Buckinghamshire Council Referendum Result
Buckinghamshire Council want to hear the views of local residents and organisations on the neighbourhood plan for Whitchurch.
In November 2020, the Parish of Whitchurch was designated a neighbourhood area by Buckinghamshire Council. This followed an application by Whitchurch Parish Council. Whitchurch Parish Council has now completed a period of local community engagement on the neighbourhood plan and have submitted the final version to Buckinghamshire Council. The next stage of the process is for Buckinghamshire Council to carry out a public consultation on the submitted plan. This is the final opportunity for local people to comment on the plan before it goes to independent examination.
