Spoken versionSites and Detailed Policies Document and Proposals Map
The Sites and Detailed Policies Document (SDPD) sets out detailed policies for use in decisions on planning applications and identify sites for development, protection and for the application of specific policies. The Proposals Map shows those designations and sites on an Ordnance Survey-based map.
The SDPD is the result of combining the Development Management Document (DMD) and Site Allocations Document (SAD), which were previously consulted on separately, into a single document to save resources. The SAD and DMD were subject to consultation in October 2008, and a further consultation on some additional sites was carried out in October 2009. The most recent stage was the production of a Pre-Submission Draft SDPD, along with a Draft Submission Proposals Map in February 2010.
Consultation on the Pre-Submission Draft SDPD and Draft Submission Proposals Map ended on 6 April. Alongside the SDPD and Proposals Map, the following documents were also open to comment:
- Sustainability Appraisal of the Pre-Submission Draft SDPD and Draft Submission Proposals Map - a document assessing the effects of the documents on environmental, social and economic objectives;
- Changes to the Proposals Map - a document showing how the Draft Submission Proposals Map would result in changes to the Adopted Proposals Map; and
- Statement of Public Participation undertaken during 2008 and 2009 - a document reviewing the consultation undertaken so far, including responses to previous representations.
These documents are available to view on this page.
The next stage is that the Council will consider whether changes are required to the document. If no changes, or only minor changes, are required to the document, it will be submitted to the Secretary of State. At that point, an independent Inspector will be appointed to carry out an examination of the document. More details will appear here when available.
