Bury is producing a Neighbourhood Plan to shape the development and conservation of the Parish over the next 15 years. We are keen to gather views from everyone that lives or works in, or visits our Parish; and we are grateful to you for completing this short survey.
Our Neighbourhood Plan will cover things like the type and style of required housing, the natural environment and green spaces, and the facilities for residents, businesses and visitors. This survey covers the needs, thoughts and expectations of people operating businesses in the Bury Parish area.
Please also note that the whole of our Parish is within the South Downs National Park. The fundamental purpose of the Park designation is conservation, enhancement and enjoyment and the Park Authority has a duty to foster our local community's economic and social well-being. Business support is a key element of this responsibility so we need your input.
Your survey responses will be strictly confidential and your information will be coded and will remain confidential. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact the Bury Parish Council Clerk by emailing: [email protected]
Thank you very much for your time and support. Please start with the survey now by clicking on the Next button below.
