NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN
Hello and welcome to the online home for the Dinnington Neighbourhood Plan.
There is an update of the Neighbourhood Plan progress at the monthly meetings of the Parish Council.
To view the most up to date information please view the minutes of the meetings in the Document library section.
We have now completed a re-run of a public consultation for the Dinnington Parish Neighbourhood Plan.
It has been brought about by the Doctors’ now requiring a slightly larger site area for their proposed new surgery than that shown in the previously submitted Plan to Newcastle City Council in March 2023. This in turn has required a minor adjustment in the Plan to the boundary of the adjacent Local Green Space, LGS6 (the old school field).
A revised Draft of the Neighbourhood Plan was produced to incorporate this minor adjustment, which was the subject of a further public consultation from Monday 22 July 2024 until Sunday 1 September 2024.
Following this consultation the plan was again updated in November 2024 and re-submitted to NCC to move the process forward to the final consultation stage
NCC have completed their own consultation of our NP, which commenced on Friday 6 December 2024 and ended on Friday 24 January 2025.
The examination commenced on 3 Feb 25

The final step of the Neighbourhood Plan process is for the Plan to proceed to a referendum open to all residents of Dinnington Parish. If this results in a majority support for the Plan, it will then be adopted and be used by Newcastle City Council as a statutory document in the determination of future planning applications in the Parish.
