Neighbourhood Plan for North Luffenham
Taking control of planning in the village
How would you like the Parish of North Luffenham to look in 10 to 20 years time? The Village Survey of 2017 indicated that the general environment and proximity to the countryside were very important and being part of a community as important to the residents of North Luffenham
The proposed development of St. George’s Barracks, with a new town bigger than Uppingham, is a threat to the environment of North Luffenham in terms of visual impact and increased traffic. The local parish councils are striving to reduce the numbers of houses in the development, but it is likely that there will be some utilisation of the former airfield.
A Neighbourhood Plan enables local communities to control the planning of the area in which they live and work. It can be used to:
- Develop a shared vision for your neighbourhood.
- Choose where new homes and other development should be built.
- Identify and protect important local green spaces.
- Influence what new buildings should look like.
It is essentially a planning document for the whole of the parish, and as such can influence any development on St. George’s within the parish boundary.(p.t.o.)
Only a Parish Council can initiate a Neighbourhood Plan, but it can only be successfully impact the St Georges development with the support of the village and the Parish Council wants your help and enthusiasm to see it through.
There will be a presentation at the Community Centre on 9th December at 7.0 pm.
The parish council feel it is important to the future of the village so please, if you are able, try and attend either just to know more or would like to be involved in some way.
All welcome; please do come.

RCC Snow warden scheme
Last year Rutland County Council initiated a Snow Warden scheme which was set up to support the local gritting of footways across Rutland’s parishes. This scheme asked parishes to attempt to compile a number of volunteers who would be prepared to grit the local footpaths within their immediate area. In 2018/19 there were fourteen volunteers who signed up to the scheme. Through the Snow Warden Scheme, RCC will provide advice and equipment to any volunteers. We are keen for the parish councils to oversee this volunteer project in their area and encourage their local communities to get involved to provide support to their local community. Rutland County Council would like to invite the parish council and any local residents who are interested in getting involved in the snow warden scheme to a training meeting on 15th October 2019 at 6:30pm in the Council Chamber at our Catmose Office.
The Snow Warden must:
- be nominated as suitable by the town or parish council or similar body
- have received suitable training by RCC to carry out Snow Warden duties
- agree to work within the advice provided by the county council
- agree to work to the parish council’s plan that has been agreed with RCC
- be registered with RCC
The Snow Warden will be working on behalf of the parish council, not RCC
If there any residents interest please can they contact the Parish clerk: Telephone 01780 408288 or email: clerk@northluffenham.org.uk.
