Highcliffe & Walkford Neighbourhood Plan
BCP Council statement
On 10 January 2023, full Council ‘made’ the Highcliffe & Walkford Neighbourhood Plan, following a positive referendum result on 15 December 2022. We would like to congratulate Highcliffe & Walkford Parish Council and everyone else involved, in reaching this milestone.
The neighbourhood plan is now part of the statutory development plan for the Highcliffe and Walkford Neighbourhood Area. It has full development plan weight in decision making. Any planning applications within the neighbourhood area will need to have regard to the policies within the neighbourhood plan.
