Funding Secured for Next Stage!

Totton and Eling Town Council voted in May 2023 to grant us the full amount we need to get our Neighbourhood Plan professionally written up and ready for submission.

In our latest meeting we discussed the needs for the brief, and confirmed that we will be using the Town Council's tender process in order to find and hire a suitable planning consultant to do this vital work on behalf of the Neighbourhood Plan Committee.

We will continue to post updates on this website. We currently believe that the Referendum is likely to be at the same time as the next General Election (i.e. no later than January 2025).

In our last meeting we also discussed the NFDC led consultation on the town centre regeneration. All of the points raised in the report tie-in very closely with the work which we have done, and it is extremely positive that we are all able to work together towards our common goal for a thriving and resilient town that is fit for the future. As always, if you wish to read the full meeting minutes, you can find them here.

Online Consultation Launch

We have recently launched an online consultation on the Totton and Eling Neighbourhood Plan, which you can access here:

https://forms.gle/nMDaSwjYKwVbfBD39

This consultation goes through each of the 4 areas of the plan, and what we are currently proposing. The questions ask if you agree, disagree or feel neutral about various aspects of the proposals. You also have several opportunities to write more detailed comments if you wish.

The online consultation takes approximately 20 minutes to complete from start to finish.

We hope that this online consultation survey gives many more residents the opportunity to comment on the current iteration of the Neighbourhood Plan, who may not be able to get to one of our in-person events.

Consultation Events in October

We're now entering a 6 week consultation period for our Neighbourhood Plan. As part of this process we have made extensive updates to this website, which now show the latest work created by our consultant Richard Lewis.

In-person consultation events

We have two in-person events in October.

1st October at Totton and Eling Community Centre 10am-2pm

14th October at Hounsdown Hall 4pm-7pm

We have also been invited to speak with Rushington Residents Association, and we welcome invitations from any clubs, societies or associations in the town who want to know more about the Neighbourhood Plan.
