Neighbourhood Plan Drafts
After some years of community discussion and action and multiple applications, Southwark Council designated ‘Area A’ on 28 August 2014. The Council went on to approve the Old Bermondsey Village Neighbourhood Forum (OBNF) as the lead organisation to develop a Neighbourhood Plan for Area A on 5 August 2015.
OBNF has held many meetings open to the public as well as smaller discussions focused on specific topics for OBNF sub-groups. A mail shot was sent to all residents (with the help of Southwark Council) in early 2016 inviting ideas and comments, and participation. There were 65 response; these have contributed to the Neighbourhood Plan’s policies.
We propose that the policies in this plan be applied in our area, alongside the planning policies in the New Southwark Plan which applies to the whole of the Borough
