*A Neighbourhood Plan is a community-led framework for guiding
the future development, regeneration and conservation of a Parish
(or group of parishes). It may contain a vision, aims, planning
policies, proposals for improving the area or providing new
facilities, or allocation of key sites for specific kinds of
development. It can deal with a wide range of social, economic and
environmental issues (such as housing, employment, heritage and
transport) or it may focus on one or two key local issues only.
