LOCAL PLAN UPDATE
Wilthshire council approved the Local Plan on Tuesday 15th October the next stage will be the submission of the plan to the Secretary of State and there will be a Public Hearing next year.
Despite many objections there was no change in the plan that was approved which supports the development of 600 houses in Hilperton
The plan also includes the provision of “reasonable” additional sites for future development which includes sites in Hilperton and Staverton see map below.
These sites may be put forward either for future Local Plans or if needed to complete allocagitons for housing in the current plan. With changes in the National Planning framework increaisng the number of houses to be built there is likley to be a further Local Plan that will be started in the next 2 years.
Hilperton Area Action Group is continuing to meet and campaign to raise our objections and concerns about this plan and future wider developments on unsustainable sites.
