Neighbourhood planning tools

There are three ways a community can use Neighbourhood Planning to meet its aims: 

Neighbourhood Plan 

Used to: 

  • establish and deliver a vision for the area 
  • set planning policies 
  • propose new uses for land 

If a Neighbourhood Plan passes a referendum, it will be used to help decide on planning applications.

Neighbourhood Development Order (NDO) 

Allows communities to grant up-front planning permission for some types of development. These are produced by parish and town councils or designated neighbourhood forums. 

Community Right to Build Order  

A type of NDO which can be produced by a community group. They can grant permission for small-scale community-led developments.
