Call for Sites - Results of the Public Consultation
Introduction
The Parish Council is leading the process of developing a Neighbourhood Plan to influence the future development of Ingoldisthorpe.
Our Neighbourhood Plan will give Ingoldisthorpe greater control over development, allowing local people to influence the type, size, and location of development in the village. It is very likely that over the course of the life of this Neighbourhood Plan (15 years) new housing developments will come forward; this is your opportunity to influence where potential new housing development would best take place.
Last year, in April 2024, the Parish Council surveyed the views of all local residents of Ingoldisthorpe. There was general support via a community survey for the allocation of new housing in the plan. Whilst there was not strong consensus on the location there was consensus that future developments should be small scale, 2 or 3 beds and for local people. Though similar numbers thought that we shouldn't have any developments, the Parish Council doesn't have the power to stop future development in its entirety.
The Parish Council has been investigating allocating areas for development and in September 2024 asked local landowners if they had any sites they would like to consider for future development. Five sites in total were submitted and have since been assessed by our consultants for their deliverability. Four were considered deliverable and during February 2025 a public consultation was undertaken to receive your views and preferred sites.
Results of the Consultation
In total 154 anonymous responses were received via online survey or hard copy.
