Background
Wirral Council agreed to designate the Hoylake Community Planning Forum on 30 April 2013. The community planning forum will have a life of five years. Further information can be obtained from the Community Forum website.
The public contact for the Neighbourhood Forum is Nigel Blacow (Membership Secretary) who can be reached at membership@hoylakevision.org.uk
The Hoylake Community Planning Forum published a draft Neighbourhood Development Plan for public consultation in January 2015 and submitted their final proposals to the Council for publicity and independent examination in September 2015. The Council published the proposals for public comment in November 2015. The deadline for comments was 22 December 2015.
The draft Neighbourhood Plan and the comments received were submitted to an independent Examiner, who recommended that the plan should proceed to a local referendum, subject to a number of modifications. The Council accepted the Examiner's recommendations and the modified documents were published in September 2016.
