Neighbourhood Plan Review Process
The Shenstone neighbourhood plan review was independently examined by Mr Christopher Collison of Planning and Management Ltd in July 2025. The independent examiner found that the neighbourhood plan review met the basic conditions and confirmed that no referendum was required because the modifications do not change the nature of the plan. We agreed with the independent examiners report and issued a decision statement confirming that the Shenstone neighbourhood plan review should be made.
