Views wanted on Kings Langley Neighbourhood Plan

Dacorum Borough council is asking for feedback on the Kings Langley Neighbourhood Plan, which will influence the way the area grows and develops into the future.

Kings Langley Parish Council has submitted its proposed plan to us to carry out a further statutory consultation.

Once the consultation is completed, an independent examiner will be appointed to review the plan. If the plan is approved it will be the subject of a public referendum voted on by residents in the parish area of Kings Langley.

Neighbourhood Plans establish general planning policies and play an important part in decisions on planning applications. Having a Neighbourhood Plan also means that parishes receive a greater proportion of Community Infrastructure Levy arising from developments in their area than those without a Neighbourhood Plan.

Neighbourhood planning activity can only formally take place in areas specifically designated by us as a neighbourhood area.

The consultation runs from Friday 3 December to midnight on Friday 28 January 2022.

Comments received will be passed to the examiner for their consideration.
