If you want to know how the Neighbourhood Plan was created, the number of local people involved in creating it, and the opportunity for local people to have their say on what is actually going to happen here, see the write-up on the Wivenhoe History website. click on this link: www.wivenhoehistory.org.uk/content/new-contributions/wivenhoes-neighbourhood-plan-protecting-wivenhoe-until-2033 This is the first time that a document like this has been Wivenhoe-led and not created by Colchester. It took six years to create. An estimated 50 people helped in one way or another. The eventual document runs to 121 pages of text, maps and pictures. Most especially it has 32 policies which have all been justified by going through a strict and thorough examination process designed to control the development of Wivenhoe until 2033.
It was adopted by the people of Wivenhoe in a referendum held in May 2019, with 2,771 people voting in its favour and 342 against.
