6. To note the Neighbourhood Development Plan review process

7. To note the next steps in the review process.
LB has been appointed by the parish council as an independent planner to help with reviewing the NDP.
There is a need to look at local issues and projects this needs to reflect the aspira-tions of the residents who have moved to the village in the last five years. The gov-ernment are pushing climate change in planning, this will be one of the key changes that is needed, there are grants are available to the parish council to achieve this.
The first step with reviewing the plan is a technical review to look at which policies need amending from a legislative point and to identify any gaps.
The update is a formal statutory process and there are a number of factors to con-sider: Effectiveness, National Legislation and Policy, Local Policy, Local circum-stances and Evidence and Local Opinion.
Cllr Hillman and LB gave an update of s106 monies and Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) and what has been paid locally. Where there is Community Infrastruc-ture Levy, with a made NDP 25% of the money raised is paid to the parish council.

Appendix One:
Neighbourhood planning provides the opportunity for communities to set out a positive vi-sion for how they want their community to develop over the next 10, 15, 20 years in ways that meet identified local need and make sense for local people. It sits alongside the local plan prepared by the local planning authority. Decisions on planning applications are made using both the local plan and the neighbourhood plan, and any other material considera-tions.
Saxilby with Ingleby Neighbourhood Plan (NDP) took two years to complete and was made in 2017. Within the plan is a list of community projects that deliver aspirations of the local community identified through consultation. The parish council focuses on two projects at a time. some of the completed projects are the new play area, wheeled park, new us shel-ters and a welcome pack which can be viewed on the parish council website. The tww pro-jects at the moment are a new MUGA (Multi-Use Games Area) and the regeneration of Bridge Street Conservation Area.
Appendix Two:
There are three types of modification which can be made to a neighbourhood plan or or-der. The process will depend on the degree of change which the modification involves:
• Minor (non-material) modifications to a neighbourhood plan or order are those which would not materially affect the policies in the plan or permission granted by the order. These may include correcting errors, such as a reference to a supporting document, and would not require examination or a referendum.
• Material modifications which do not change the nature of the plan or order would require examination but not a referendum. This might, for example, entail the addi-tion of a design code that builds on a pre-existing design policy, or the addition of a site or sites which, subject to the decision of the independent examiner, are not so significant or substantial as to change the nature of the plan.
• Material modifications which do change the nature of the plan or order would re-quire examination and a referendum. This might, for example, involve allocating significant new sites for development.
