Development Control
Policy Manual DPD
The Development Control Policy
Manual DPD will contain a series of criteria based development
control policies, for use in the detailed consideration of planning
applications. It will be designed to ensure development accords
with the over arching principles set out in the Core
Strategy.
Where are we now?
A consultation on the Issues and Options stage of

The feedback received from this consultation - including submitted
comments and feedback from surveys - has been examined and we have
published a consultation report, which can be viewed below. In
addition, comments made during the consultation can be viewed on

What happens next?
The Council will develop the next stage of the Development Control
Policy Manual DPD which will present options to develop the
document. Further consultation will take place at this stage.
