Englefield Green Village Neighbourhood Plan update
Englefield Green Village Neighbourhood Plan was adopted on 31 January 2024.
In accordance with the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, Runnymede Borough Council has formally 'made' (adopted) the Englefield Green Village Neighbourhood Plan. It now forms part of the statutory development plan for Runnymede. The plan will be used alongside the Runnymede Local Plan 2030, Policy NRM6 of the South East Plan, Surrey County Minerals and Waste Plans to determine planning applications in the neighbourhood area.
