Unit 10a Waldeck House Waldeck Road Maidenhead Berkshire SL6 8BR FOREWORD Brent Council has adopted its Replacement Unitary Development Plan (UDP). The Plan pro- vides planning guidance for the development and use of land. As such, it seeks to improve the environment of the Borough, promote the regeneration of areas in need of renewal in a sustainable way and promote access to new development for the whole community. The UDP was adopted after several rounds of public consultation and a public inquiry which gave those with an interest in the future of Brent, an opportunity to have their say on the plan’s policies and proposals. Many residents, businesses and other interested parties have participated in drawing up the Plan which will have a central role in shaping the Borough over the coming years. Parts of the Borough will be transformed over the next few years and it is important that there is clear planning guidance so that change is implemented in a way which brings envi- ronmental, economic and social benefits and is in the interests of local people. There is also much in Brent that is worthy of protection and conservation. The Plan provides the necessary guidance and controls to allow for the changes necessary to regenerate the run- down parts of the borough whilst protecting and enhancing the positive aspects of our environment.

The law gives local Councils a duty to prepare a plan which set out how they would like this change to occur, and what can or cannot be built in particular areas (in Brent this is called a Unitary Development Plan (UDP)). It also makes Councils responsible for deciding whether or not particular proposals for change should be allowed. 1.2 PURPOSE OF THE PLAN Brent Planning Service is located at Brent House, 349 High Road Wembley 1.2.1 The Unitary Development Plan (UDP) is a legal document con- taining all the planning policies and standards which will be used to make decisions on planning applications - whether for major commercial developments or for small schemes such as house extensions. The Plan also indicates where the Council wishes positively to encourage new development in particular areas with- in the Borough or on individual sites. 1.2.2 In Britain a 'plan-led' system operates. This means that, unless there are good reasons not to, the plan should be followed in making decisions on planning applications. This helps avoid decisions being made in an arbitrary manner, gives the public the opportunity to shape the way decisions are made and the future Brent Unitary Development Plan - 2004 1 INTRODUCTION 1.2.5 The legal framework for the preparation of the UDP is the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended by the Planning and 1.3 FORMAT OF THE PLAN Compensation Act 1991), and the Town and Country Planning (Unitary Development Plan) (England) Regulations 1999.

  • London Borough of Southwark Unitary Development Plan Foreword
    London Borough of Southwark Unitary Development Plan Foreword I am very pleased to introduce the Southwark Unitary Development Plan. It is an extremely important document and will form the basis of our development policies for the next decade. In recent years Development Plans have been given increased status by the Government in helping to reach planning decisions on all applications for development - for housing, office, industrial, shopping, community and other uses of the Borough's land and buildings. In addition Southwark's UDP provides a framework to guide investment and manage the best use of land and infrastructure, and its Proposals Map shows where changes are expected and what uses are preferred. By making sure the right sort of development goes in the right place, its policies aim to benefit communities and neighbourhoods most in need, provide jobs and improve the transport system, enhance our environment and protect our heritage, and provide equality and opportunity to all. The adoption of the UDP on 19 July 1995 was the culmination of an extensive period of plan preparation begun by the Council in 1989. I am very grateful to everyone who took part in the plan preparation process - commenting on the Consultation Draft from March to November 1990, objecting to or supporting the Deposit Draft between July and September 1991, taking part in the Public enquiry held between June and August 1992 and responding to the Proposed Modifications over the period July to September 1994. I am confident that this extensive exercise in public consultation has helped us to produce a development plan with the long-term vision essential to guide and control development in Southwark through to the twenty-first century.
