PROPOSED SETTLEMENT BOUNDARY CHANGES FOR SEEND

Wiltshire County Council has published a draft policy document “Wiltshire Housing Site Allocations Plan and Changes to the Settlement Boundaries”. It is open for public consultation for 10 weeks from 14th July. There are proposed changes to Seend’s settlement boundary. Seend Cleeve and Sells Green are not included in this review as Seend Cleeve is designated a small village and Sells Green open countryside. The Parish Council will be submitting a formal response, but anyone can respond to the consultation document. The link to the full policy document is: http://www.wiltshire.gov.uk/wiltshsgsiteallocationsplan. Click here to see the map and details of the consultation period.
