We held a drop-in session at the Library on 9th April. 285 questionnaires were handed out and 80 people came in for a chat about Falmouth Neighbourhood Plan.
Topics discussed were wide ranging. Several people referred to inadequacies of transportation and bus services, others to housing pressures and the need to maintain a good mix of housing types to preserve the community balance. Town-centre traffic featured several times, as did the view that Falmouth could make more of its waterfront to strengthen its economy and provide leisure opportunities for residents. Many of the visitors thought that a Neighbourhood Plan made and approved by the local community would help the local planning authority to make better decisions on planning applications in the area.
Now we are looking forward to the next drop-in event on 29th April at the Watersports Centre, Grove Place.
