Ham and Petersham Neighbourhood Forum Re-designation Consultation

Overview

The Ham and Petersham Neighbourhood Forum was designated in January 2014. This designation lasts for five years and expired on 16 January 2019. The forum has applied to the Council to be formally redesignated in accordance with the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, the Localism Act 2011 and the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012.

Re-designation will enable the Ham and Petersham Neighbourhood Forum to continue to monitor the Ham and Petersham Neighbourhood Plan and determine when a partial or full review is required.

No change is proposed to the Ham and Petersham Neighbourhood Area boundary. The regulations require that a Neighbourhood Forum has a written constitution that describes the basic framework of the organisation, meet regularly and has a minimum of 21 members.
