The Chalgrove Village Plan Steering Committee was set up in May 2007. The aim of the Steering Committee is to by a process of consultation throughout the community (no matter what age group) to gain information relating to issues raised by the residents of Chalgrove. To analyse this information and publicise as a strategy and action plan document in order to promote or improve social, economic and environmental well being and quality of life for all. Also to achieve sustainable development for the future. The final plan will be made available to all residents, local businesses and organisations, the Parish Council, County Council and District Council. It will be published on the South Oxfordshire District Council website alongside other Oxfordshire Villages Village Plans. The plan will highlight policy and areas for action. All residents of Chalgrove are invited to join an activity or an action group to ensure implementation. The overall process broadly covers the following steps and can take up to 18 months to accomplish. * Establish a Steering
Group
* Carry out Consultation and Analysis * Formulating Action Plans and Strategies for the final plan * Publish
