Central Bedfordshire Local Plan
MMPC will be submitting objections to the proposed development sites identified in the new Central Bedfordshire Local Plan, particularly those north of the A421 and on either side of the Shelton’s. This area represents the last remaining part of the parish that retains its traditional linear village character.
The Council believes the flood risk in these locations is clear and, with a further 5,000 homes already planned as part of the Marston Vale development, Marston Moreteyne has already experienced significant growth and should be given time to absorb this level of development.
We strongly encourage every resident to take part in the Central Bedfordshire Council Local Plan consultation. This is your opportunity to have your say on proposals that could shape the future of our parish for many years to come. Whether you support or oppose the plans, it is important that your views are heard.
The consultation closes on Monday 17th August 2026, so please don’t miss the opportunity to respond.
