Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs) and guidance
Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs) build on and provide additional guidance to help in the interpretation of our core strategy.
We create SPDs to help you, especially if you're a developer, better understand:
- The intentions of our local plan.
- The steps you'll need to go through to submit a planning application.
- The information you'll need to supply to support a planning application for these sites.
