Local Development Framework
Under the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 the Herefordshire Unitary Development Plan will eventually be replaced with a collection of documents known as the Local Development Framework.The Local Development Framework (LDF) will consist of:-
- Local Development Scheme;
- Statement of Community Involvement;
- Development Plan Documents;
- Supplementary Planning Documents;
- Annual Monitoring Reports and
- Sustainability Appraisal & Habitats Regulations Assessment
These can be accessed by clicking on the links above or from the menus on the left.
Together these documents will provide the framework for delivering the spatial planning strategy for Herefordshire.
