Planningsoverleg

De gemeenteraad van Sheffield neemt regelmatig contact op met de FoPV over geplande werkzaamheden in de vallei.

Ze bezorgen ons ook verschillende documenten voor sommige van de werken die hun plannen uitleggen en welke werken er moeten worden uitgevoerd.

Waar mogelijk hebben we ter informatie links naar deze documenten verstrekt.

Planning Applications

We sometimes receive requests from members, and non members, asking us to support them in objecting to local planning applications.

​

FoPV doesn’t usually raise objections unless the proposal will damage special landscapes (for example the Mayfield Valley). We are an environmental charity and Trustees are very careful not to make assumptions about what 800+ members might think about specific developments around and outside the perimeter of this large and very varied parkland. Some members might take the view that specific applications seem to be a reasonable proposal in the light of recent similar planning applications in a particular area.

​

We do however have people on the committe who take an interest in planning applications and developments within the valley, or at least the section we refer to as 'our patch'. These are discussed at committee meetings and where we feel it is necessary we encourage our members to consider adding their voice via the Sheffield Council Planning Portal.
