Murton Neighbourhood Plan

Murton Neighbourhood Plan submission consultation

On 12 December 2024, an updated version of the Murton Neighbourhood Plan Submission document was uploaded as formatting errors have been identified in the existing version of the Submission Neighbourhood Plan. The updated version does not introduce new wording or policies. Consequently, the closing date for the consultation has been amended to 10 January 2025. All existing representations will be passed on to the Examiner and no further action is required from those representees (unless the organisations / people concerned wish to make additional comments as a result of the updates).
