Neighbourhood planning enables members of a local community to take forward planning proposals for the neighbourhood in which they live. Neighbourhood Development Plans are voluntary local planning policy documents that are written and developed by a community, usually led by a town or parish council.
Once a neighbourhood plan is made, and adopted in High Peak, it will form part of the Development Plan for High Peak. This means that it will become a main consideration within the local planning system.
