Warborough & Shillingford Revised Neighbourhood Plan
December 2026 Update:
The examiner has now completed his review of our plans. He has made recommendations to SODC, and they are working through them now. All relevant documentation can be found on the SODC Warborough and Shilllingford neighbourhood Plan page, which can be accessed via this link.
We expect to hear about a referendum in Q1 next year and will keep you posted – in the meantime, get onto the electoral roll and line up your postal or proxy votes.
Thank you for your support
March 2025 Update
After 24 months, 4 public events, 2 walking workshops, 15 parish mag articles, 25 steering group meetings, numerous posters, emails and Parish Council stage gates, with excellent support from our professional advisors, on Wednesday 19 March the Parish Council unanimously voted to submit our reviewed plan, and its supporting documents, to South Oxfordshire District Council. We are appreciative to all residents who have supported us throughout.
The district council will now check the plan for legal compliance and will then conduct another 6-week public consultation. Notices will be provided locally on this website, parish notice boards and on the village email. We are grateful to St Lawrence who are allowing SODC to display copies locally for those unable to access materials on-line. Please monitor the parish notice boards, this website and the village email for further updates and details of how you can be involved.
Following this consultation SODC will submit the plan to an independent examiner who will decide what changes are required and which procedures are appropraite to allow the plan to be ‘adopted’ by SODC.
In the meantime, as always, if you have any questions, please reach out to the Neighbourhood Plan team at wandsplan2023@googlegroups.com
South Oxfordshire District Council are carrying out a consultation on the submitted neighbourhood plan review and supporting documents which runs from Monday 28 April to 11.59pm on Wednesday 11 June 2025.
