September is preparedness month. As Flooding is one of the most common and widespread risks in the UK we are sharing todays challenge with our residents:

Flooding can happen quickly and affect homes, roads, services and local communities. Taking a few simple steps now can help you stay safe and reduce the impact if flooding occurs.
Being prepared for a flood:
1. Check your flood risk online
2. Sign up for flood warnings
3. Know the three flood warning levels and what they mean
4. Prepare a flood plan and protect important documents and valuables
5. Stay safe during and after flooding

Being prepared means you can act quickly when warnings are issued, helping to protect yourself, your family and your property.

Some of our Licensing Officers have been out in St Neots recently, conducting compliance and support visits to a variety of businesses and premises. Our Officers were looking at:

- Alcohol licences
- Late night refreshment licences
- Pavement licences
- Street trading consents

Our Helping Hands in Hunts work closely with businesses to ensure they are operating safely, responsibly and with the correct licences in place. As well as carrying out compliance checks, our Officers provide advice, guidance and support to help businesses understand and meet their licensing responsibilities.

We're committed to keeping Huntingdonshire's businesses thriving, safe and compliant for everyone.

Council will be asked to consider the final draft of the Local Plan on 9 September 2026. As part of the decision-making process, the Plan will first be considered by the Overview and Scrutiny (Performance and Growth) Committee on 2 September 2026, which will make recommendations to Cabinet for consideration before the matter is referred to Council.

If approved by Council, a six-week period of public consultation will take place during September and October 2026, inviting representations on the Plan's legal compliance and soundness ahead of its submission to the Government by the statutory deadline of 31 December 2026.
This represents the final version of the Council's Local Plan, following a number of public consultations that have helped shape its content. The Plan sets out the Council's strategy for future growth while providing protection for the local environment.

Representations received during the six-week publication period will not be considered further by the Council. Instead, they will be submitted directly to the independent Planning Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State. The Inspector will oversee the independent examination of the Plan in public and will take into account duly-made representations received throughout the preparation of the Local Plan since work on it commenced.

We're inviting residents to take part in a consultation on the renewal of the Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) for Dog Control!

In 2023, the PSPO for Dog Control was renewed with the addition of requirements to tackle irresponsible persons in charge of a dog. This was to address irresponsible dog ownership and reduce incidents involving attacks on animals, as well as alarm or distress caused to members of the public.

The consultation closes on 13 September 2026 - have your say now: https://www.huntingdonshire.gov.uk/consultations/pspo-dog-control-public-consultation

We’re delighted to celebrate another exciting milestone in the development of the new Visitor Centre at Hinchingbrooke Country Park, with the new steel structure now proudly in place! 🤩

The building is really starting to take shape, giving us a glimpse of the new facility that will provide an improved welcome and experience for visitors to the park. 🌿

A huge thank you to Lindum Group and everyone involved in bringing this project to life. It was great to mark the occasion with our Council Leader, the redevelopment project team at HDC and Lindum’s workforce on site.

Keep an eye out for the next stages of this exciting project taking shape! 👏
