Why do we need a Neighbourhood Plan? Because Developers are Predatory and will take Opportunities wherever they can. A Neighbourhood Plan is a Defence against Developers. A Neighbourhood Plan shows Developers and SNC that we know what we want for Kislingbury 10 To show that we want to have a say over what happens to our Parish To develop a Vision, and Plan of how to realise it, for Kislingbury over the next 15 years To Involve all The Residents, Young and Old, At School, or Working, or Retired, in the process of creating that Vision To make Kislingbury a better place to live To Protect Kislingbury from being swallowed up by Northampton To help Villagers and their Families to remain living in Kislingbury

What is A Neighbourhood Plan? A Neighbourhood Plan is a way of helping local communities to influence the planning of the area in which they live and work 11 The Plan is a plan for the village as a whole. It looks at a wide range of issues, including: The development of housing (location, type, tenure etc.) Local employment and opportunities for businesses to set up or expand their premises. Transport and access issues (roads, cycling, walking etc.) The provision of leisure facilities, schools, places of worship, health, entertainment, and youth facilities. The protection and creation of open spaces (nature reserves, allotments, sports pitches, play areas, parks and gardens). Installation of renewable or alternative energy solutions. Protection of important buildings and historic assets. If more than 50% of those voting in the referendum vote ‘yes’, then the council will bring the plan into legal force. It will be used to determine planning applications and guide planning decisions in the Parish

What we have to do now Consult and Communicate Again and Again!!! With you because this is your Plan and we need to find out what you want and make a Plan that you Support With Other Neighbouring Councils to make sure we don’t Plan anything that upsets them With Statutory Bodies such as The Highways Agency and Heritage Britain so all are aware of the Plan Proposals With the SNC to make sure that we are not Planning anything which goes against their Local Plan With Landowners to get their support for the Plan With Village Businesses to make sure that the Plan caters for their needs With Developers so they become aware of what the Village wants 16

When will the Neighbourhood Plan be Finished? The Final Act of the Plan Preparation will be the Referendum The Referendum is the Formal Act when all Kislingbury Residents Vote to accept the Plan When the Plan is accepted the SNC will adopt the Plan and take it into account for their Local Plan and Planning decisions Referendum Question Do you want South Northants Council to use the Neighbourhood Plan for Kislingbury Parish to help it decide planning applications in the neighbourhood area? 17
