Following formal adoption by Wychavon District Council the plan becomes part of the statutory development planning process for our area.
What does that mean?
The local planning authority and planning inspectors when considering planning applications or appeals must make their decisions in accordance with the policies of the Neighbourhood Plan, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The plan is not intended to, nor can it, overrule the South Worcestershire Development Plan but it does give us a seat at the planning table.
