East Suffolk Council
Kesgrave neighbourhood plan
- Kesgrave Neighbourhoood Plan (made 26 May 2021) (corrected 22 June 2021)
The Kesgrave Neighbourhood Plan was prepared by Kesgrave Town Council and sets out its vision for development to 2036.
Following a ‘yes’ vote at referendum on 6th May 2021, the plan was formally ‘made’ by East Suffolk Council on 26 May 2021 and now forms part of the Development Plan for the District.
The council determined to make the plan on the grounds that more than 50% of people who voted in the referendum voted in favour of the Council using the neighbourhood plan to help it determine planning applications in the neighbourhood plan area. The Council further considers that the neighbourhood plan would not breach or be incompatible with any EU obligation or any of the Convention Rights.
A modification to correct an error in the Neighbourhood Plan was made on 22 June 2021. Further information is set out in the Modification Document.
