Development Management Development Plan Document

The Development Management Development Plan Document (DPD) will set out the detailed day-to-day planning policies through which development within the District will be delivered, and which planning applications will be judged against.

The Development Management DPD will sit below the Core Strategy in the Local Development Framework (LDF) and so it must be consistent with its approach. A diagram showing how all the LDF documents link together can be found under Related Documents.

We have produced the two versions of the Development Management DPD to encourage discussion on the range of issues it seeks to addresses; the Discussion and Consultation Document (2010) and the Preferred Policy Options Document (2012). More information on these documents can be found under Related Links.

The next stage of the document will be the pre-submission document.
