Wendover Parish Council
Welcome to Wendover
Wendover is situated in the Metropolitan Green Belt and Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, lying at the foot of the Chilterns - a well known tourist area. The parish lies in the administrative area of Aylesbury Vale within the County of Buckinghamshire. The Parish Council represents over 5000 electors and has a population of 8,500 according to the 2001 census return.
Wendover Celebrates
Wendover Celebrates is the community event of 2012 in Aylesbury Vale. 4th June will mark the Diamond Jubilee and our celebration of The London Games. A jam-packed day full of exciting entertainment is planned. This event is being directed by the Wendover Celebrates organisation.
New Parish Council
Following the local elections held on the 5th of May 2011 Wendover now has a new, fully elected, Parish Council.
Parish Council Members are:
Jennifer Ballantine, Emma Carroll, Marion Clayton (Vice Chairman), Bob Duggan (Chairman), James Grant, Roz Green, Nicky Gregory, Bob Lewis, Karen Saunders, Cheryl Stamper, Oliver Statham, Tom Walsh, Steven Worth
Conor Heslin, Amy Shaw (Conor & Amy are our co-opted youth members & cannot vote on issues)
Car Parking and Community Room
Wendover Parish Council has withdrawn its support from the contentious project to provide car-parking and community rooms at the Witchell.
The new council feels that the demand for parking and community space can be resolved in other ways. Working groups made up of councillors and co-opted members of the public are exploring a number of options to meet these particular needs without reducing amenity areas within the village.

HS2
Wendover Parish Council is opposed to any HS2 route which would be detrimental to the community of Wendover. The council's Consultation Response document has been completed and it robustly rejects the government's case for HS2.
Planning for Wendover's Future
The Vale of Aylesbury Plan
Localism is coming to Wendover and Aylesbury Vale. The first area it touches is the very important one of Planning. In future local people will have a greater role in influencing the strategy and outcomes of the planning process. Aylesbury Vale District Council (AVDC) is the planning authority for Wendover and a Questionnaire has been delivered to homes in Wendover. This stage of consultation is now over and the results will be used to inform the work of both councils as they formulate policy.
The Parish Council's response to the Vale of Aylesbury Plan (VAP) is now available:
A reference document "Wendover Fact Pack" is available for additional background information on this website, with paper copies at both the Library and the Clock Tower.
