Welcome
Welcome to the Keyworth Village Plan website
The Keyworth Village Plan is our community’s vision for
the future. It sets out how we can maintain Keyworth’s rural character
and sense of community.
Through consultation with those who live and work in the village, the Plan addresses matters of greatest concern to residents, and gives the village a collective voice. It outlines actions we can undertake as a community alone or with assistance from others.
Although it cannot dictate national or local government policy, it can make a positive contribution to debates about wider issues such as the environment, transport and roads, youth, local housing & planning initiatives, health & welfare and leisure. It also has the potential to influence powerful forces that impact upon village life, such as Councils, planners, developers and traders.
Survey
Thanks to everyone who filled in the Keyworth Village Plan Survey. Over 1,700 surveys were completed from 3,020 households – a massive 55% return! This far exceeded any expectations. Without doubt, the results truly reflect the opinions and views of the residents of Keyworth. So a big thank you to everyone who filled in the Survey. Please view the Survey results.
Village Plan
We have looked at all the Survey responses to work out what residents want. This has been used as the basis of our Keyworth Village Plan. Our Plan contains an action plan for each theme identified in the Survey. It now also incorporates a Village Design Statement. The Keyworth Village Plan 2009 and the Keyworth Village Design Statement 2011 are both available in PDF format. Please be aware they are quite large files so may take a while to download!
Issues one and two of the action plans for the Keyworth Village Plan are also available in PDF format.
