FUN WALK 2024

This Sunday morning, 22nd September,  the Parish Council will be taking part in the 2024 Fun Walk Trust Sponsored walk.

The aim is to raise funds to help to refurbish some of the play equipment in the 
Westlake Park’s Junior Play area.

The existing play area was built with grants secured from the Veolia Trust in 2012 and some of the equipment is looking very tired. The 5K walk will be around Westlake Park and we have a target to raise, if possible, £2,000.
A bonus pot by the Fun Walk Trust and donated by local businesses tops up any money raised, over and above that raised by the Parish Council.
Come along and cheer us on from 10.00 or feel free to join us on the walk with your completed sponsor forms.

If there are any local businesses who would like to sponsor those taking part please contact Chris Barlow, The Parish Clerk, by Tel: 07758255621 or Email: clerkbgnbparishcouncil@gmail.com

we look forward to hearing from you.

WHAT IS A NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT ORDER? 

 

A Neighbourhood Development Order is a planning tool that enables communities to shape development in their local area. Like an approved planning application, it grants permission for a specific development in a designed  area.  The permission may be in outline (with reserved matters) or in full, like normal planning permission.

The key difference between a normal planning application is that an NDO is a proposal made by the Parish Council and local community. Neighbourhood Development Orders must pass an examination and referendum so it very important you provide us with your views on the Draft. 

In developing the NDO the aim is to encourage landowners and developers to bring about positive change in an area, In this case the Plotlands of North Benfleet but these changes will benefit all who live in the village.
