About the Neighbourhood Plan
What is the NDP?
The Saxilby with Ingleby Neighbourhood Plan Review is a local planning document that guides development in the parish. It sets out policies on housing, design, local facilities, and community infrastructure. It forms part of the statutory development plan, meaning planning decisions should follow it unless other material considerations apply.
The original NDP was formally adopted by West Lindsey District Council on 08 May 2017. This has since been reviewed to ensure the plan remains up-to-date and continues to reflect the needs of the community.
The Review Process
The parish council led the review of the NDP, supported by residents, councillors, and planning professionals. The review included:
- Public consultation on the draft plan
- Examination by an independent examiner to ensure the plan meets the required 'basic conditions'
- Recommended modifications to improve clarity and consistency
- Updating plan with modifications
- Referendum
