Consultation closed 21 March 2018
We invited comments on the proposed boundary of the neighbourhood area and for the proposal of Cathedral, Magdalen and St Augustine’s Neighbourhood Forum to become a ‘Designated Body’ to produce a Neighbourhood Development Plan. This was in accordance with Regulations 5 (Boundary) and 8 (Forum) of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012.
Consultation was carried out in collaboration with the Broads Authority, as some of the proposed neighbourhood area falls within their jurisdiction. This combined consultation ran from Thursday 8 February 2018 to Wednesday 21 March 2018.

Decisions
The proposed boundary for the Cathedral, Magdalen and St. Augustine’s Neighbourhood Plan Area and proposed designation of the Cathedral, Magdalen and St. Augustine’s Neighbourhood Forum were considered by Norwich City Council’s Cabinet on 13 June 2018 and by the Broads Authority’s Planning Committee on 22 June 2018. Both authorities resolved to refuse both applications. Norwich City Council also resolved to designate an alternative neighbourhood area for the northern city centre area.
The decisions to refuse the applications and to formally designate the alternative neighbourhood area were made on 25 June 2018. Details of the reasons for the decisions are set out in this statement.
