1. Regulations 5, 5A and 6: Neighbourhood Area Designation (December 2022)

Keighley Town Council submitted a Neighbourhood Area Application to the Council on 30 September 2022 to designate the whole of the civil parish of Keighley as a neighbourhood area for the purposes of preparing a Neighbourhood Development Plan.

The proposed neighbourhood area was approved by the Council's Executive on 6 December 2022.

This designation is in accordance with Regulation 5A of the Neighbourhood Planning (General) and Development Management Procedure (Amendment) Regulations 2016, which came into force on 1 October 2016.

These regulations included an amendment whereby if a neighbourhood area application from a parish or town council equates to the whole of the parish area, consultation prior to the designation of the neighbourhood area is no longer required.

The qualifying body is Keighley Town Council.
