At a meeting on 23rd April 2019, Harrogate Borough Council (HBC) approved the Parish Council’s application for designation of the Staveley and Copgrove Neighbourhood Plan. The proposed plan area of both Copgrove and Staveley civil parishes was approved along with the Parish Council’s statement of suitability for the plan production.
Designation is a formal process in Neighbourhood Plan (NP) development whereby the Local Planning Authority (LPA), HBC, recognises a proposed plan area and supports the plan preparation. This means that the Steering Group can proceed with development of the NP with the full support of HBC.
The decision details are available here. The designation application documents are available in the Neighbourhood Plan section of the Document Library.
