The results of the referendum for the Neighbourhood Plan have been announced this morning (Friday, June 28).
The voting was as follows:
Yes 677
No 109
Spoilt 3
The turnout was 22%
The Neighbourhood Plan Steering Committee under the vice-chairmanship of Anthony Kimber (the nominal chairman is the Mayor) have worked hard on this for several years and the approval of the plan by a very large majority would seem to be a just reward for their efforts and this will now form the basis of the future development of the town.
By approving it, Ryers now have a real say in what happens around our ancient town in the future.
