TRDC Local Plan documents

We have had some members contact us about some of the sites where we have not objected.

We have said that there are a number of points we wish to see covered and these will be considered as the plans are published – at that time we may object!

The sites we have not objected to are based on the idea of “can this site be developed?” and our response is “Yes”, subject to a number of safeguards as detailed in our document.

The start date of the six-week consultation was from the 11th of June – you can visit the document here:

Batchworth Local Plan survey

Batchworth Community Council is preparing a Neighbourhood Plan for the area covered by the two wards within the boundary of Moor Park & Eastbury and Rickmansworth Town Ward.  It is important that this Neighbourhood Plan reflects your ambitions and views. Last year and early this year, the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group asked for your ideas on important matters to be addressed in the Plan. They have now used these to prepare a draft vision for the area, a set of five objectives and three ideas on how to deliver each of these five objectives.

They would like you to indicate how you feel about these ideas by completing the online survey at www.batchworthplan.org.uk/questionnaire by 18th July.  There is also an opportunity to tell them whether you have any suggestions for the Neighbourhood Plan. The questionnaire can be completed online (from link above). If people wish, they can download it, print, complete and return to the BCC offices at Basing House, 46 High Street, Rickmansworth.
