The documents linked below are:
- The Pre-Submission Neighbourhood Plan 2020-2040 which was approved by Deddington Parish Council at its meeting on November 16. This includes prospective site allocations and draft policies.
- The Site Allocation report, which lists the potential sites for development offered by landowners and their agents, and describes how a long list, then a short list, and then the three for potential allocation were selected.
- A character study of the three villages that comprise Deddington Parish
- A Housing Needs Assessment carried out by AECOM, an independent consultancy
- Two Strategic Environmental Assessment reports on the various sites that have been offered, also produced by AECOM
Results of the Neighbourhood Plan Survey – an informal consultation of parishioners – are available below.
Results of the informal Neighbourhood Plan Survey in Deddington Parish
November 2022
Introduction
The Deddington Neighbourhood Plan steering group conducted a survey in June this year (2022) to guide us in creating a neighbourhood plan covering the years 2020 to 2040. Around 1,050 booklets were delivered to every household in the parish and 405 responses were received – a few more via Survey Monkey than on paper. This is considered a pretty good response and we are very grateful to everyone who answered what was a lengthy document.
Underlying the survey were two reports carried out by AECOM, an infrastructure consulting firm. One assessed housing need, which was set at 126 dwellings to the end of the plan period – from which 56 homes granted consent since 2019 could be deducted. The other assessed the sustainability of the sites offered for development, taking into account considerations of landscape, historic environment, and value to the community in terms of health, convenience, transportation and eco viability.
The first part of the survey invited parishioners to vote on which of the 14 sites offered by landowners they preferred for development. The second part focused on the 16 neighbourhood plan draft policies.
Your votes and comments – well over a thousand of them - have been hugely helpful to us in creating the draft plan. And, of course, to satisfy Cherwell District Council and ultimately the government examiner, we have to take into account other planning considerations as well. The resulting pre-submission Neighbourhood Plan (NP) will be put to a Regulation 14 consultation for consideration by Cherwell District Council and other statutory consultees very shortly. Ultimately the completed plan will be put before an examiner and then to a referendum of the parish.
Below we include links to the following comprehensive results of the NP survey:
