Local Plan Consultation

Rugby Borough Council is updating its local plan.  The local plan sets out policies and locations for new development across the borough, and we are obliged to review it every 5 years as a minimum.

The Preferred Option Consultation Document sets out a proposed development strategy for the borough for the period 2024-2045. This identifies what development and land use should go where. It also includes draft development management policies to be used for determining planning applications, including policies to tackle issues we identified in the ‘Issues and Options’ consultation in October 2023. 

We invite your feedback on the Preferred Option Consultation Document. You can review the document, respond via the online survey, and review supporting evidence at rugby.gov.uk/localplan 

Alternatively, hard copies of the consultation document are available to review at:

Rugby Borough Council’s offices, Town Hall, Evreux Way, Rugby, CV12 2RR

Rugby Library and Information Centre, Little Elborow Street, Rugby,CV21 3BZ

Dunchurch Community Library, The Green, Dunchurch, Rugby, CV22 6PA

Annual Parish Meeting - Wednesday 24 April 2024

The Annual Parish Meeting will be held on Wednesday 24 April 2024 at 7.30pm in Wolvey Baptist Chapel. This is a meeting for all residents of Wolvey to raise issues of interest and/or concerns. There will be updates from local groups and local councillors from Wolvey Parish Council, Rugby Borough Council and Warwickshire County Council will be attending. Warwickshire Police have also been invited to attend.

Replacement Street Lights

The parish council has recently completed its programme of replacing all the old- style lanterns in all of its street lights with new greener energy efficient LED lanterns. The old-style lanterns are now obsolete and it would have been very difficult to source replacement parts.

Wolvey Wetland

Currently, the wetland remains closed to the public on health and safety grounds. This is because several of the boards along the boardwalk which runs through the wetland have failed and could be dangerous if walked on.
