Uttlesford New Local Plan consultations

Uttlesford District Council has now begun the process to produce a new Local Plan for our district.

The previous draft plan was rejected by the government Inspector. This has led to a new approach from the current administration, starting with a number of public consultations and the creation of a stakeholder group.

9 consultations in all will be undertaken, with the first, ‘Where you live’ now open for comment.

The consultation website can be accessed here.

We would encourage residents to engage with the Plan process and have your say now, as policy is developed.

Repairing our village sign

Some of you might be wondering where the village sign has been these past few weeks.

Well, it has been suffering from the weather and looking a little worse for wear, so we had it taken down for some care and attention. Along with new oak supports, the sign itself has received a clean and repaint by our own Parish Councillor, Roy Ramm.

The work will ensure this important focal point for the village is protected, enhancing the look of our historic conservation area for years to come.

This is the ‘before’ picture:

And ‘after’:

IMPORTANT Essex coronavirus update

IMPORTANT Essex coronavirus update

In a move to slow the current rates of infection across our county, from Saturday, Essex will be placed into the high level of restrictions (tier 2 on the new COVID system).

What does this mean?

  • No household mixing indoors – this includes at home or in hospitality venues
  • Different households can meet outdoors in public spaces but must stick to the ‘Rule of six’
  • 10pm curfews will remain in place for all pubs and restaurants
  • Remember hands, face and space
  • Reduce travel where you can

If we act now, we can stop the spread and protect our loved ones as we head into the winter months.
