Tysoe’s Neighbourhood Plan – UPDATE
Following the hiatus caused by the Government publishing new national planning guidelines (the new NPPF) on 17th August and the necessary cessation of our consultation on the proposed amendments to our Neighbourhood Plan (NDP), we are now engaged in preparing a new set of proposed changes which will comply with the new NPPF.
To give all residents an opportunity to discuss this and to understand the implications of such significant change, we are holding a Village Meeting on Thursday 15th October at 7.00pm in the Village Hall.
All are welcome to come and hear about how the new NPPF will change this important village document and share their views on what is important in planning for the future of Tysoe.

South Warwickshire Local Plan and Regulation 19 Public Consultation
The SWLP was approved to be submitted for Regulation 19 at the last Council
Meeting. I voted against the motion as I do not believe that the plan is ready and is
flawed because the deliverability is based on getting some £400m funding for two
new roads and bridges across the River Avon, and in my judgment is not “sound”.The next stage in the process is now in progress.
It is a public consultation which closes on the 8th of September, although this is not very well publicised in my opinion.
Below I have copied the list of face-to-face public meetings that are planned by
SDC. You will note that none of the public briefings are scheduled for the South of
the district. I have raised this with the Chief Executive. The plan will affect
everyone, and everyone has a right to comment and express their view. One more
face-to-face meeting is due to be announced, and I have requested it to be in
Shipston on Stour.Meeting availability or not, it is important that our residents have the chance to make their feelings known and have them taken into account before the final submission of the Regulation-19 draft plan.
Comments can be submitted on-line at the link below, or by email, or by post.
Regulation 19 Consultation
The Regulation 19 consultation of the South Warwickshire Local Plan is now
live until Tuesday 8 September 2026.This Regulation 19 consultation is being undertaken on behalf the
Government’s Planning Inspector and is focused on specific issues, namely
whether the plan meets legal requirements, shows effective joint working
between councils and has been properly tested in terms of soundness.It gives residents, businesses and stakeholders the opportunity to have a final say
before the document it is submitted to the government for independent
examination.Following the consultation, the plan is scheduled to be submitted to the
Secretary of State by 31 December 2026, in line with Government deadlines.There are a number of events being held for residents to ask questions to
officers:- Monday 10 August, 4pm to 7pm – Bidford Parish Council meeting room
- Wednesday 12 August, 4pm to 7pm – Talisman Square, Kenilworth
- Thursday 20 August, 4pm to 7pm – Waterside, Stratford-upon-Avon
- Wednesday 26 August, 4pm to 7pm – Pump Room Gardens, Leamington Spa
Members of the public are encouraged to respond online via the South
Warwickshire Local Plan Consultation Portal where possible.Representations can also be emailed to swlp@warwickdc.gov.uk, or posted to

Thank you!
Thank you to everyone who supported the Parish Council’s Village Open Day on Saturday, whether representing a village organisation or simply coming along.
The answer to the question ‘How Many Community Trees does Tysoe have?’ was 104 so very well done all those who even got close, and even more well done to The Rev. George Heighton who won!
£34.50 quiz proceeds on their way to Community Hub/Talk Dementia.
It is always dangerous to single some out for praise at such a village event, but special thanks must go to Village Hall Team for all their help with the organisation, and especially Linda for all those amazing cakes!
If you would like to learn more about the various groups and activities in Tysoe please visit our Join In page, or alternatively you can download a summary of many of the represented groups to read at your leisure here.
