Neighbourhood Plan 2022 Questionnaire Results

In July 2022, we distributed a questionnaire and newsletter to capture views on what the new Plan should focus on. 302 responses were received, 183 online and 119 on paper.

  1. The current NDP vision has general support but requires a substantial addition on sustainability – climate change, energy and the environment.
  2. The main topics respondents wanted to see addressed in a new Plan were, in order of preference
    1. Environment and green space 84.4%
    2. Sustainability and climate change 73.7%
    3. Facilities 68.7%
    4. Housing (specificly the need for affordable starter homes, affordable rent, availability for downsizers was a consistent theme) 58.0%
    5. Design and Conservation 55.3%​​​​
  3. Road, cycle, pedestrian safety and parking were all of concern of the respondents.

Housing had a high score from the analysis and there appears to be demand for specific types - affordable starter homes, affordable rent, availability for downsizers was a consistent theme.
