5. Your town – your plan Bishop’s Stortford Neighbourhood Plan All Saints, Central, South and part of Thorley Key Issues 1. Should we consider attempting to retain playing fields as green spaces when a school moves site? 2. Southern Country Park management should be an example of ‘best practice’. 3. NP1 was criticised as being too vague; NP2 should be more orientated towards action and implementation 4. The river has been under-represented in NP1 and is important in NP2. 5. Flooding: is this an issue for ‘green spaces’? 6. Sylvia raised the issue of boundaries in the NP2 area. This is not a Green Spaces issue but I will ask James Parker about it. 7. James has also raised the issue of the tension in the use of green space between sport and ‘wild’ usage. © Bishop’s Stortford Town Council
