New Milton Neighbourhood Plan

New Forest District Council are inviting residents of New Forest to have their say on the New Milton draft neighbourhood plan.  

The neighbourhood plan will enable local communities to have more influence on development in their area, such as setting planning policies that direct where new homes, shops, and offices are built.  The plan can also help determine what new buildings look like, guide how infrastructure is provided, and provide tools that help people plan for development that aligns with their local needs. 

Residents can comment on these documents online from Friday 28 November to Friday 23 January 2026.

Alternatively, comments may be submitted by email to policyandplans@nfdc.gov.uk 

Paper copies of the draft plan and supporting documents can also be viewed at:
