The Carnforth Neighbourhood Plan was successful at referendum in January with an 87% vote in favour of the Plan being ‘made’.
We have provided support to the Town Council on the production of the Neighbourhood Plan over the last three years. This has included policy drafting, consultation events and assessment of local heritage to support a policy around non-designated heritage assets.
The Plan seeks to ensure that the best qualities of the built environment and historic qualities of the town are reflected in future developments and that this helps support active and healthy communities. The Plan also hopes to capture the benefits of inward investment and increased awareness of the sustainability agenda that will come with the opening of the nearby Eden of the North project.
