Residents of Bramshott and Liphook will have their say on the future of their community as a referendum on the Bramshott and Liphook Neighbourhood Plan takes place on Wednesday, October 23. The plan is up for adoption, with East Hampshire District Council (EHDC) overseeing the referendum on behalf of Bramshott and Liphook Parish Council.

To be eligible to vote, you must be registered on EHDC’s electoral register and be 18 years of age or over by the date of the referendum. EU citizens legally residing in the UK also retain their right to vote in local elections.

The plan gives the Liphook and Bramshott community a say in the future of the places where they live and work, giving residents the power to produce a plan with real legal weight that directs development.

It helps you:

– Choose where you want new homes, shops and offices to be built.

– Have your say on what those new buildings should look like.

– Grant planning permission for the new buildings you want to see go ahead.

Polling cards will be sent from September 25. Voters are required to present valid ID when voting in person. If you’re eligible but not yet registered, you have until 11.59pm on Monday, October 7, to register via the GOV.UK website. For more information and to view the neighbourhood plan, visit the East Hampshire District Council website.
