Welcome to the twenty-fifth newsletter from the Bishop's Stortford Neighbourhood Plan team.

***Don't forget to vote in the Neighbourhood Plan referendum this coming Thursday***

The referendum for the second Neighbourhood Plan for Bishop's Stortford All Saints, Central, South and part of Thorley is being held this coming Thursday, September 7th 2017 and all those eligible to vote in the Neighbourhood Area will be able to do so. By now you should have received your polling card and if you have a postal vote, please remember to post this as soon as possible.

***Don't waste your vote***

Like the first, this second Neighbourhood Plan has been developed by the local community for the local community and it has taken the team of volunteers over two years to create and reach this stage.  The plan does NOT advocate large-scale housing development but seeks to improve any development that does occur and help to ensure that it meets the town's needs in terms of supporting infrastructure.

***Go to our website for further information***

If you want further information about the plan, just go to our website at www.stortfordplan.org and download the final plan together with supporting information.   Alternatively, you can go to the East Herts Council Website which contains full information about the referendum as well. If you would prefer to see a physical copy of the plan, these can be viewed at the following places:

  • East Herts District Council, The Causeway
  • Bishop's Stortford Library, The Causeway

You can also follow the plan's progress via Facebook and Twitter - it's a useful way to stay in touch so please follow our pages now.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards
