District Local Plan No.2 With Alterations

Saved Policies

Since 1996, the district's planning policies have been contained in the District Local Plan No.2 with Alterations. Under the Planning & Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, these policies expire on 27 September 2007. Special permission was required from the Secretary of State to save policies beyond this date. That permission has been granted in respect of 33 of the policies. A reduced version of the written statement to just include those parts which are saved is below.

April 1996 version

The saved sections of the local plan do not include any of the supporting text or justifications for policies. As such, there are likely to be occasions when the original version from April 1996 is useful for reference.
