Seale and Sands

The Council designated the Seale and Sands Neighbourhood Area on 24 May 2016 following an application from Seale and Sands Parish Council and a four week consultation.

Seale and Sands Neighbourhood Area

The Seale and Sands Neighbourhood Area follows the boundary of Seale and Sands parish. No other neighbourhood area may now be designated within this area.

Neighbourhood planning in Seale and Sands parish is led by Seale and Sands Parish Council. Anyone who lives, works, has a business or is an elected member within the neighbourhood area is entitled to get involved and help produce a neighbourhood plan or a neighbourhood development order for the neighbourhood area.

Neighbourhood planning is a voluntary activity and there is no requirement for residents or businesses to be involved. Residents in the Seale and Sands Neighbourhood Area who are usually eligible to vote there will be asked to approve any neighbourhood planning measures through a referendum, so residents who are not involved in the planning process will still be able to have a say over the planning policies or development orders that are brought into force.

If you would like to get involved in neighbourhood planning in Seale and Sands parish, please contact Seale and Sands Parish Council:
