Local Plan 2040 Draft Plan - Strategy options and draft policies consultation

Representation ID: 7938

Received: 20/09/2021

Respondent: Pavenham Parish council

Representation Summary:

That said, however, the Parish Council fully supports Policy TC8 – “Essential local shops and public houses”. Pavenham at present has no local shop – although the draft Neighbourhood Plan does contain a policy supporting the provision of an appropriately scaled local shop.
In addition, the village’s only public house is presently closed and its owner has placed it on the market for sale at a price which the Parish is unable to match. The Parish Council would oppose any attempt to demolish the public house or change its use.
