The Ilminster Neighbourhood Plan is an exciting community approach to local planning policies and aims to help people living, working or studying in Ilminster to play a direct role in improving Ilminster. It covers all aspects – the location and type of new homes and other developments, transport, heritage, tourism and the environment, including tree planting, cycling, walking, our shops…
The Neighbourhood Plan Development Group is holding a series of structured workshops for the people of Ilminster to join in. Run by a team of professional planners, urban designers and architects in an informal environment, they will be informative and fun, with refreshments along with activities for younger people.
We will share the outcome of our completed ‘Call for Sites’ and ‘Sites Options Report’ and wish to hear your views on what sites are suitable for development, and the design of developments, in Ilminster.
