Consultation process
s the proposed application is made by Heworth
Without Parish Council and the application area is the parish
boundary, Section 5A of the Regulations applies and no public
consultation exercise on the application is necessary.
However, Section 7 (Publicising a designation of a neighbourhood
area etc) of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012
(as amended) states that as soon as possible after approving the
designation of a neighbourhood area, a local planning authority
must publish the following on their website and in such other
manner as they consider is likely to bring the designation to the
attention of people who live, work or carry on business in the
neighbourhood area—
(a) the name of the neighbourhood area;
(b) a map which identifies the area; and
(c) the name of the relevant body who applied for the
designation.
In order to ensure compliance with Section 7, we intend to
publicise the designation by placing copies of the designation
documentation in applicable local libraries, CYC business /
resident newsletters, noticeboards in Heworth Without Parish,
emails to adjacent parishes, members and senior officers.
Further consultation throughout the Neighbourhood Plan process will
be undertaken in accordance with our approved Statement of
Community Involvement and any agreed consultation strategies.
