Local Development Framework

Supplementary Planning Documents

Supplementary Planning Documents (SPD's) will be developed in line with the LDF process, and will be similar to our current Supplementary Planning Guidance.
SPD's are non statutory documents and once prepared will elaborate on and give further guidance to the Development Plan Documents of the Local Development Framework. SPD's will be prepared to give guidance on the following issues:

  • Affordable Housing
  • Residential Design Guidance
  • Section 106 Contributions
  • Sustainability Checklist
  • Car Free Development
  • Transport Assessments and Travel Plans
  • Thameside West Development Framework
It is anticipated that these will be prepared and adopted by us in February 2008. Until these documents are adopted, existing Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG's) will continue to inform decision making.

Current SPD's

The Canning Town and Custom House Supplementary Planning Document was adopted on 17th July 2008 by the London Borough of Newham.
