Wendover Neighbourhood Plan

31/01/2020

A big thank you to everyone who was able to vote in yesterday's referendum on Wendover Neighbourhood Plan. The overall result was a resounding yes. This should afford some cooperation with higher local authority in local development.

Today's the day for our Referendum! The topic: Wendover Neighbourhood Plan. The reason: to make developments happen in accordance with our wishes, including protecting our open spaces. The polling station at Wendover Memorial Hall, Wharf Rd, HP22 6HF is open until 10pm this evening. If you can't find your polling card, just turn up and tell them your address. To read the Plan go to

The Countdown begins! It is only a week until you can vote on Wendover Neighbourhood Plan. You should have received a polling card weeks ago. The Plan seeks to protect the character of Wendover against inappropriate development. It will be a legal requirement for planners to take it into account, if the Plan is made (if the referendum result is in favour of it).

Hard copies are available to view at WPC, the Clocktower and Wendover Library.
