Neighbourhood Plan

At the Woore Parish Council Meeting held on the 14th of July 2025 it was unanimously supported for the following statement regarding the Woore Neighbourhood Plan 2016-2036.

On the 25th of July 2019, Shropshire Council resolved to ‘make’ the Woore Neighbourhood Plan 2016-2036. The ‘making’ of the Plan meant that Plan was adopted and became part of the statutory development plan for the area. Though the plan is now six years old this remains the case and the policies contained in Woore Neighbourhood Plan will continue to influence development in the local area. 

Woore Parish Council will continue to monitor the Shropshire Local Plan review and when necessary or appropriate then Woore Neighbourhood Plan 2016-2036 will also be reviewed.

 

 

Full details of the Neighbourhood Planning Process from inception to ultimate success (2016-2019) can be found on the web site of the former Neighbourhood Planning Team - http://www.woorenpt.org.uk

 

Now that the Plan has been made by Shropshire Council (July 2019), and is part of the County's planning process, the Parish Council takes responsibility for monitoring its success, and whether during its life (until 2036) it needs review or amendment. Inquiries about this should now (2019 onwards) be made to the Council.
