The Original Version of the Neighbourhood Plan

East Langton Parish Council took the decision to undertake a Neighbourhood Plan at its meeting on 15th July 2013. They engaged Yourlocale , a local company which supports Parish Councils to produce Neighbourhood Plans.

The Parish Council was grateful to have received grants from the following organisations to support this work:

  • Big Lottery Awards for All
  • Leicestershire Big Society
  • Locality

The Referendum on the Neighbourhood Plan took place 21/6/18.

132 people voted, 41% turnout, 132 for and 15 against.

The plan was therefore adopted.
