As many Bleadon residents may remember, in 2004/5 the Parish Council, as part of its bid to seek Quality Council status, decided to undertake a questionnaire of every Bleadon household in order to develop a Parish Plan to see how our area saw itself developing over the 20 year period. Please note this was prior to the Parish Boundary Review change that now includes the Hillcote area within the new parish boundary.

Residents were invited by BPC to a public meeting in January 2005 where "Nearly 200 people packed the Coronation Hall on 15 January to hear about the parish plan. lt was standing room only for many villagers at this inaugural event". Following a presentation several working/action groups were established to look at the various aspects required of the questionnaire (see minutes). After many months of work a questionnaire was finally distributed to residents and businesses in the parish. 640 questionnaires (Vision ICT) were collected and returned to the Parish Council in September 2005 i.e. 265 households representing the views of "60% of residents" (draft Parish Plan 2008). These were analysed by their appointed contractor and first website developer/host (Vision ICT), with technical assistance by BOB, see detailed information and analysis below.

To BOB's knowledge these detailed full questionnaire results have never been shared fully with the public nor a final clearly related 20 year 'Parish/Village Plan' produced by BPC. A 2008 draft document was created by BPC, with an action plan (updated in 2009) and associated resources. A leaflet with a "summary of [103] key points from the Bleadon Action Plan 2009" was published in Feb 2009 and later distributed to residents at the time of re-accreditation for Quality Council status. The final plan was officially adopted in May 2009 (Min 213.27.4) and submitted to North Somerset in Jun 09 (Min 214.4.12). BPC resolved that there should be a Strategy, and "that a time line chart be prepared based on the Village Plan in order to assess and review the cost implications for each of the financial years of the plan" in Sept 2009 (216.4.8). We/BOB are yet to receive the adopted Parish Plan or key related documentation (2017).

So as original members of two of the working groups, and in case time should forget, we thought that we would share the information on BOB, especially as the original PC website and Parish Plan information has now been replaced, twice!.

BOB often hears through conversations within Bleadon and also published in the Parish Council Village News, of observations, comments, criticisms, complaints, etc. of life in Bleadon.... So here is some factual benchmark information/data to compare whether any of this dialogue (or gossip) is in fact valid! Also, if you ever wondered whether others were thinking similar to you, you can now see if you are part of a minority or majority!

BPC indicated in 2017 that "Parish Plans carry very little weight nowadays" and that they may resolve to dismiss it. That may or may not be so with regards to some planning issues, but what about all the other wide ranging topics of the more holistic plan? (Since the Localism Act 2011 Neighbourhood Plans are now used to determine where development is desired).

Although data was originally gathered in 2005, BOB believes these results still remain a valid and valuable source of the essence of views held by residents of Bleadon. It can be used today for an indicative measure of whether the Parish Council's 20 year strategy for Bleadon is still progressing the way the public said it wanted it to develop, and of course whether expenditure is priortised to the public's wishes. Aside from the fact that it was costly to produce and that it represents the views of 60% of residents, it still reflects some of the current local action groups and initiatives, ongoing issues, and items highlighted in BPC minutes. Just have a quick look at the leaflet associated with the Parish Plan, previously distributed to residents in 2009.

The Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) indicate that parish plans can "Influence how local services are delivered. Parish Plans are an important tool that can be fed into other plans and strategies such as Local Plans, where the needs of individual towns and villages and their surrounding countryside might not normally be adequately considered."

UPDATE APRIL 2017 - BPC Apr APM Mins (Open Forum) states that "The Clerk confirmed once more that he could not find a copy of a [adopted] Parish Plan" and that the plan as "obsolete"? (Adopted May 2009 Min 213.27.4), submitted to NSC June 2009 Min 214.4.12)

UPDATE JULY 2017 - Good Councillor Guide 2017 for Parish Councils states "We consider the delivery
of services and community rights, review your council’s role in the planning system including neighbourhood plans and introduce parish plans" and "A parish plan is a community plan and not a land use plan. It is a set of policies and an action plan for the next few years covering a much wider range of issues such as housing, the local economy and transport. It is a good idea to draw up a plan, whatever the size of your community.."

UPDATE SEPT 2017 BPC Agenda (Min 299.18) BPC to consider submitting the Neighbourhood Plan Application to North Somerset Council and set up a Management Working Group.

Therefore percentages, as supplied to us, will only be relative to the volume of completed answers to that specific question and not to any other question, or to the volume of returned questionnaires.

Please also note that the questionnaire data displayed on this website is re-produced wholly and solely from the original questionnaire results that were collated, analysed and produced by Vision ICT Ltd. as commissioned on behalf of Bleadon Parish Council). If any discrepancy is subsequently found please contact me and we will endeavour to correct it.
