Special Announcement
A Planning Application has been received for new housing on the field bordered by Strawberry Lane and Hill Top Road. The Cheshire West and Chester notice attached to the gate on Hill Top Road (see photo) states that "The proposed development does not accord with the provisions of the development plan which covers this area". This area is of course part of the Green Belt, and as such enjoys the highest national level of protection from new built development.
However, recent cases have shown that even the special "washed-over" green belt status of Acton Bridge may not be enough to prevent opportunistic developers from exploiting the system on Appeal. Your Parish Council considered this Application at its meeting on Monday 7. April, which was attended by a gratifyingly large number of residents. A report will be published shortly.
If you have a view about this proposal, or just wish to learn more, please visit the Cheshire West and Chester application page; or search at http://pa.cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk/online-applications/ for Planning Ref 14/00930/FUL ; look at the plans on-line, and write with your opinion to CWAC, quoting the Application number 14/00930/FUL, at the following address...
Development Management, Planning Service
CWAC's website gives the Neighbour Consultation Expiry Date as Wednesday 2. April 2014, but following representations from the Parish Council that no site notices had been displayed, this has been extended to 15. April.

Acton Bridge Parish Council consists of eight Councillors and a Clerk. We usually meet at 7:30pm on the first Monday of each month in the Parish Room, to discuss planning applications, local concerns and items of interest to the community. Members of the public are welcome to attend Parish Council meetings, but are not generally permitted to speak except during a special agenda item set aside for the purpose before the main business begins. Visitors' active participation is, however, encouraged during the Annual General Meeting, when the Councillors will do their best to answer questions and discuss matters of concern to local residents. Most meetings are attended by one or more of our three Local Government Representatives. Following the local government reorganisation in April 2009, Vale Royal Borough Council was abolished and we became part of Cheshire West and Chester Council. Since the May 2011 elections we are in a new "Weaver and Cuddington" Ward, which consists of four Parishes - Acton Bridge, Cuddington (which includes the community of Sandiway), Dutton, and Weaverham. You can read more on our Boundary page.
