North West Leicestershire District Council are launching a consultation on their draft Local Plan which runs from Friday 21st March to Friday 2nd May 2025.
As this affects residents in Whitwick, the Parish Council have arranged for a Consultation event to be held at Whitwick Park Hall on Monday 7th April from 4pm-7pm. This plan sets out where homes and businesses should be developed, areas of the district that should be protected, planning policies developers must follow and how far towns and villages can expand.
The session will be a drop in session with material on display and NWLDC representatives available to talk to, with a brief presentation at 6pm and a questions and answers session to follow.
