Set up a Neighbourhood Area
Once a Parish or Town Council has made the decision to proceed with a neighbourhood plan for their area and discussed this with the Council, they must apply to the Council to designate the neighbourhood area.
To designate a neighbourhood area, you must send in the following:
- a map identifying the area you want designated - a ‘neighbourhood area’
- a statement explaining why this area is considered appropriate for designation
- a statement that the organisation or body is either:
- (i) a parish council/ town council, or
- (ii) capable of being designated as a neighbourhood forum
Please send applications to:
- Planning Policy, Dover District Council, Council Offices, White Cliffs Business Park, Dover CT16 3PJ
Once received, the application will be considered by the Council in accordance with the prescribed timescales before designation.
For further information on the process for making this application, please contact planningpolicy@dover.gov.uk or 01304 872244.
