The development will include 50 affordable units, available for rent or purchase under shared ownership.

“We are delighted to have received planning consent to move forward with the development, which will make such positive contributions to the local community, with homes to be released for sale in early 2019.”

The development will include a large area of open natural space, a play area, land allocated for the expansion of the school’s facilities along with a drop off area and parking. The development will also facilitate an extension to the Doctor’s surgery car park and provide land for the potential expansion of local healthcare facilities.

“It has been a pleasure meeting with the local community throughout the planning process and we hope that they are as pleased with the final plans as we are.”

Hanslope Parish Neighbourhood Plan 2016 -2031 – Pre- Submission Plan

Hanslope Parish Neighbourhood Plan 2016 -2031

Pre- Submission Plan

The residents working group set up by Hanslope Parish Council to produce a Neighbourhood plan for the parish has now completed its work. Before the plan can be submitted to MK Council for independent examination followed by a referendum of Hanslope residents to adopt or ‘make’ the plan, a Pre- Submission version has to be produced for consultation.

This is to provide a formal opportunity for local people and other stakeholders and statutory bodies to comment on the proposed policies of the plan.

A copy of the plan can be downloaded from the Village web site and page 7 of the plan has details how written comments can be submitted by email, or to a postal address.

The six-week consultation period will end on 12 August 2018
