Pre-submission Consultation

You are here:

Neighbourhood planning regulations (Regulation 14) require the draft neighbourhood plan proposal to be the subject of a pre-submission consultation before it is submitted to the local authority for independent examination. The Parish Council approved a draft Wilsden Neighbourhood Plan in January 2023. 

Title Date

Wilsden Neighbourhood Plan Draft Consultation January 2023 (pdf, 5.65 MB)

This Plan is now ready for the formal Pre-Submission Consultation Stage which will run from January 31st, 2023 to March 21st, 2023.

Pre-submission consultation requirements include publicising the draft plan to people who live, work or run businesses in the area. A copy of the Plan can be viewed and downloaded above.

In addition to the Plan, consultation is also taking place on a Design Code and a number of supplementary evidence documents. These documents can be viewed here.

Hard copies of the Plan and supporting documents will be available to view at Wilsden Community Post Office and Wilsden Village Hall.  A small number will be available for residents to loan for a limited period. During the consultation period the Parish Council will hold drop-in consultation events at Wilsden Village Hall. These events will take place on February 8th between 2pm and 4pm and between 7pm and 9pm in the Albion Room at Wilsden Village Hall.

Prior to this pre-submission consultation the Parish Council submitted an earlier version of the Plan for consultation in 2017. Subsequent changes to national planning regulations along with feedback from Bradford District Council resulted in a decision to revisit major sections of the Plan. Copies of the 2017 pre-submission draft can be viewed here.

Printed copies of the Plan are available to view at the Parish Council’s Office by arrangement by ringing Gail Denham on 07384 713 156, or Wilsden Post Office, or the Village Hall Mon-Fri between 9.30 am to 1.30 pm
