Neighbourhood Plan Area Proposals

29 May 2018

Lowestoft Town Council has submitted an application to designate a Neighbourhood Area for the purposes of producing a Neighbourhood Plan.

The Neighbourhood Plan is a way for the Town Council to help shape how the community develops over the

coming years. This is not a formal consultation on the Neighbourhood Development Plan itself but whether this is a suitable area for the Plan to cover.
