Delivery and Development Principles DPD

The Delivery and Development Principles DPD will contain detailed policies for the development and use of land, including all major sites that might be developed to meet the Royal Borough's requirement to provide homes, jobs, shopping and recreation in line with the approach established by the Core Strategy DPD. It is necessary to ensure that development set out by the LDF can be delivered in the ways envisaged. To ensure this, the LDF has to be soundly based on robust and credible evidence. For more information on the Evidence Base, including forthcoming work, please visit the dedicated webpage.

The detailed structure of the Royal Borough's LDF and its timetable for production, is set out in the Local Development Scheme. For further information on each document please visit the dedicated page. In order to inform the preparation of the DPDs, the Council has prepared a Sustainability Appraisal (SA) framework. This began in February 2008, when the Council published for consultation a joint Scoping Report. Following the consultation, a Revised Scoping Report and Consultation Statement was published. These are available to download on the Core Strategy DPD webpage.
