Vdp’s the old way
Target point in the old policy, was effectuated in close cooperation with Doarpswurk.
In our policy it said:
“in 2008 every community will have a village vision”
A hard goal to achieve!!!

• take into account the demographic changes, i.e: the elderly
• integrate sustainability
• think about the village identity
• think about the village in its surroundings
• expand your views
• think about the spread of services
