This is an appeal to everybody to take 10 minutes out of their day on Thursday to go to the village hall and vote in the referendum . We are hoping for as many people as possible to vote in what is a significant decision for planning laws in the next 10 years.
You are being asked to answer a simple Yes / No question:
The referendum will ask a single question:
‘Do you want Shropshire Council to use the Neighbourhood Plan for Adderley, Moreton Say and Norton in Hales to help it decide planning applications in the neighbourhood area?’
Residents should have received their poll cards in the post this week for the referendum on the neighbourhood plan. July 25th at the Village Hall. The referendum will also take place in Norton In Hales and Moreton Say.
It’s important that you turn out and vote because the neighbourhood plan is an important document for all three communities as it sets out in law the local planning rules for the next 10 years. These rules have been arrived at after consultations with residents over the last 5 years (2 years were taken up with the pandemic). The neighbourhood plan steering group was made up of residents from the three parishes, not just parish councillors, so it’s a plan which comes out of local views.
The referendum will ask a single question:
‘Do you want Shropshire Council to use the Neighbourhood Plan for Adderley,
Moreton Say and Norton in Hales to help it decide planning applications in the
neighbourhood area?’
You will be asked to answer YES or NO it’s as simple as that.
We hope that as many people as possible will turn out on the 25th and vote on this important issue.
