Supplementary Planning Documen

Supplementary Planning Documents

Supplementary Planning Documents (SPD) are produced as a supplement to the Local Plan produced by the City Council. The aim of the document is to indicate how the City Council interprets the policies of the adopted Local Plan in a particular circumstance. Some guidance applies to the whole district and will deal with a particular issue; others apply to only part of it such as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Documents can also be site specific, especially where development is proposed such as the sites allocated in the Local Plan.

Supplementary Planning Documents are prepared in consultation with the community and set in the context of national planning policies. Once adopted by the City Council, the document will be used by planning officers and the Development Control Committee when considering planning applications.

Supplementary Planning Documents are available free from the City Council.
