Background Information

A Neighbourhood Plan:

• allows us to have some input into this and any later development in Tasley, including smaller scale infill development

• could allow us to give protection to some of our best loved green spaces and their biodiversity 

• could allow us some control over the design of new housing including its density 

• helps to support the infrastructure needed to go with this level of development.

This Tasley Neighbourhood Plan (TNP) sets out the Planning Policies we have prepared to achieve the best outcomes for Tasley Parish and is the result of the consultations we have held with the local community to understand their needs and desires for the future of this parish.

Developers such as those responsible for the new building in Tasley are required to contribute funds to local authorities to cover infrastructure requirements. This funding, known as the Community Investment Levy (CIL) is spilt between the local authority (i.e Shropshire Council) and the local community through the Parish Council, i.e. Tasley Parish Council.

The Neighbourhood Plan is a key document in determining how Tasley Parish Council should use the CIL funding to the benefit of the Tasley Community.
