Neighbourhood Plan

EPPERSTONE NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN - QUERY OF UPDATING March 2026

Cllr Raoul Clarke attended an online event with Locality to discuss the future of Neighbourhood Planning:
It has been decided that the Epperstone Neighbourhood Plan 2016-2033 is working as envisaged in shaping and guiding development within the village, and need not be revised. This decision is to be reviewed, and the plan realigned as then necessary, once the local government reorganisation is complete, operational, and a new Local Authority Development Plan is issued.


EPPERSTONE NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN REFERENDUM 12th DECEMBER 2019
I’m delighted to advise you that the village voted a tremendous 82% in favour for NSDC to adopt our village Neighbourhood Plan.
This will now form part of NSDC’s decision making process in all future village planning applications.
