What is Hertsmere's Draft Local Plan?
Hertsmere’s Draft Local Plan sets out how the borough will be developed over at least the next 15 years. It is intended to be adopted in 2022, with building starting in 2023. You can read the full Draft Plan here (opens in a new tab), or paper copies are available to borrow at Shenley Post Office.
It is a long and complex document (241 pages plus supplementary docs), so this page intends to give you help in understanding what parts of the Plan may affect Shenley Parish, and how you can have your say.
The Parish Council held a public meeting and Zoom meetings about the Local Plan in October – this is a good starting point for understanding the Plan, where in Shenley it might affect, and how you can have your say. A copy of the slides and the recorded presentation are available below.
