The neighbourhood plan covering the settlements of Kineton and Little Kineton took another significant step forward with the release of an initial draft document. A consultation on this draft started before Christmas and runs until 18th January.
Jeremy Wright MP praised the efforts of the plan team and noted the progress that had been made since he attended the first public consultation meeting in February.
Visiting the latest open day on 10th January he said, “Kineton is a vibrant community and the plan shows it is open to taking a fair share of the increased housing numbers necessary to support the growth in the district. I understand concerns about excessive numbers of new developments and unsustainable levels of new housing, particularly where the existing infrastructure is already stretched.”
