Connecting our Garden Communities Plan Published and Adopted!

We would like to thank everyone who left a comment on the Taunton Garden Town Commonplace page in relation to the draft Connecting our Garden Communities Plan.

We received a total of 445 contributions on the Commonplace consultation portal from 145 respondents including 249 comments and 146 agreements. You can find our responses to your comments in the "you said, we did" section of our consultation statement here https://www.somersetwestandtaunton.gov.uk/media/3819/cogc-consultation-statement.pdf

The Plan was updated and amended in response to your comments and subsequently adopted by Full Council on 7th February 2023 and is now published on our website. You can find the final version of the Plan here https://www.somersetwestandtaunton.gov.uk/taunton-garden-town/connecting-our-garden-communities/ along with the associated appendices and further information.

We are now working with stakeholders to move the proposals of the plan forward into delivery as opportunities arise. There will be further chances to engage as specific projects come forward.

Thanks for taking the time to complete the consultation. Please get in touch if you have any further questions at strategy@somersetwestandtaunton.gov.uk.
