REGULATION 14: Pre-Submission Consultation

Due to changes in the content and layout of the Draft 1.0 version of the Chapel and Hill Chorlton, Maer and Aston Neighbourhood Plan, the Parish Council had considered it appropriate to repeat the Regulation 14 process. The consultation took place between 19 September and 31 October for six weeks.
