Here we go again
HBM
Our beloved Council has released the draft Local Plan.
(They waited until 2 hours after polling had finished in the recent County Council elections - I wonder what they were afraid of.)
The Local Plan MATTERS. It matters because it lays down the ground rules and the blueprint for development across and around our town for the next 20 years. Once it's been signed off by an Inspector (towards the end of next year) we're stuck with it.
So it makes sense to spend some time having a good look at it now, and getting involved in the consultation process, so that we're not left with the short end of the stick.
We'll be keeping you up to date with the Hillborough bit of the Local Plan on this site. You can follow the impact of the Local Plan on Herne Bay as a whole on the main HerneBayMatters website.
By the way, there's no point in complaining to anyone just yet - our Council will be ignoring everything that anyone says until the official start of the consultation, some time in mid-June.
In the meantime, do please let us know what you think - either by commenting on the posts in this blog, or by using the "Contact" option on the menu at the left of the screen.
