Test Valley Residents Help Form Borough Council’s New Four-Year Plan

Test Valley Borough Council has launched its new four-year plan, which has been developed using the views of around 2,000 residents.

The plan for 2023 – 2027 will play a key part in determining decision-making, laying out the council’s vision, values, priorities and place-based approach for residents.

For the last year, Test Valley Borough Council has been engaging with residents to find out their priorities and what they want to see in the borough. This included workshops which took place at the end of 2022.

The plan was officially launched on 28 June 2023, with those who took part invited to be the first to take a look at the new four-year plan.

It focuses on five main priorities:

Sustainability – delivering lasting benefits for our communities
Connection – building upon our communities’ identities, strengths and ambitions
Environment – a greener borough for all
Inclusion – working together to create opportunities
Prosperity – creating economic growth that impacts positively on our communities

The Test Valley Borough Council Annual Corporate Action Plan will detail how the priorities will be delivered during the next year and on.

The four-year plan also reflects Test Valley Borough Council’s commitment to working with communities in a way that celebrates their uniqueness, sense of belonging and the ambitions people have for the places where they live.
