Stroud District Council have recently announced an 8 week consultation period on A Heritage Strategy for Stroud District. The Civic Society will be submitting views – and we would encourage everyone interested in Stroud to do so too.
The document, subtitled ‘Valuing our historic environment and assets’, is to become Supplementary Planning Advice, so it is essential to get all views on board!
You can take part between Thursday 13th July and Friday 15th September 2017. Details are in the downloadable pdf document available from the SDC website HERE.
SDC are particularly interested in;
- whether the priorities and big issues identified within the document are the right things to focus on;
- what options exist for tackling them;
- any practical or financial implications; and
- whether there are other options or opportunities that have been missed.
There is no structured consultation questionnaire – views can be sent by email, letter, or a response proforma from the website. Full details are in the first few pages of the document.
Updated to add: Stroud Civic Society will be responding to this document and would be pleased to incorporate any comments members may have on this issue in their reply. Comments should be sent by post to our Chairman, Juliet Shipman at Apartment B, Field House, Field House Gardens, Stroud, Glos GL5 2JX or email julietshipman@hotmail.com in time for us to respond before the end of the consultation period on 15th September.
