Introduction
In
November 2000 the Government’s Rural White Paper
'Our Countryside – The
Future'
launched the concept of the parish and town plans whose purpose is
to:
“…
set out a vision of what is important, how new development can best be fitted
in, the design and quality standards it should meet, how to
preserve valued local features and to map out the facilities which the
community needs to safeguard for the future.”
Parish Plans
should “identify key facilities and services, set out the problems that need
to be tackled and demonstrate how distinctive character and features can be
preserved.” The first public meeting to determine if the residents of Althorne wished to participate in the development of a Parish Plan took place on 3rd October 2007. The meeting was initiated by a resident of Althorne, Mrs. Janet Cloke, assisted by Stella Meesters from the Rural Community Council of Essex (RCCE).
