2.0 CHANGES TO THE PLANNING SYSTEM

2.1 The Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act (2004) introduced Local Plans (then known as Local Development Frameworks) which were made up a number of individual local plan documents, then known as Development Plan Documents (DPDs). The system has been overhauled since 2010, with

the passing of the Localism Act which introduced neighbourhood planning powers, initiated the process of abolishing Regional Strategies and introduced a ‘Duty to Co-operate’ between local authorities and;

the introduction of a National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), which replaced all previous Planning Policy Guidance (PPG) and Planning Policy Statements (PPS) and establishes a guiding principle of a Presumption in Favour of Sustainable Development;

The introduction of new development plan regulations and new terminology;.

The NPPF refers to the collection of documents that make up the statutory plan for a Local Planning Authority (LPA) as the ‘Local Plan’ The Core Strategy. All new Local Plan documents must be in general conformity with the NPPF.

2.2 The Local Plan is a collection of plans and policies set out in Local Plan Documents and Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs). Local Plan documents set out the policies for the District and are subject to Sustainability Appraisal (SA) to consider their economic, social and environment effects. They go through public consultation and independent examination before they can be adopted. SPDs add detail and further 4 Sixth Revised Version of the Local Development Scheme [Approved 26 March 2013]v2 guidance on how local plan policies are to be applied. SPDs go through consultation but can be adopted without going through examination in public.

2.3 The Localism Act (2011) introduced the Duty to Co-operate which requires planning authorities and other public bodies to actively engage and work jointly on strategic matters. The Council co-operates actively and on an ongoing basis with the National Park authorities, with the neighbouring districts of Lancaster, Barrow, Copeland and Eden as well as with County Council, government agencies and infrastructure providers.to ensure that strategic priorities are reflected in the Local Plan.

2.4 The Localism Act has also introduced powers for local communities to prepare their own neighbourhood plans. Where these conform with the Council’s local plan, have gone through independent examination and are supported by a referendum, they must be included within the Council’s local plan. In South Lakeland, Heversham and Hincaster Parishes are co-operating on the preparation of a neighbourhood plan.

2.5 The procedure for the preparation and review of Local Plans has been revised and is contained in The Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) () 2012 Regulations.

3.0 THE CURRENT LOCAL PLAN

Development Plan Documents (DPDs)

3.1 The Local Plan for South Lakeland is made up of a number of Local Plan documents and SPDs. The Council produced the Core Strategy first. This sets out how much development is proposed, broadly where it will be built and measures to manage its impact. The Core Strategy was adopted in October 2010..

3.2 The Local Plan - Land Allocations, which is currently under examination, will identify or ‘allocate’ land to meet these needs for specific types of development such as housing and employment. It expected to be adopted by October 2013. The Local Plan Development Management Policies and other Local Plan documents as well as, the Community Infrastructure Levy will support the Core Strategy.

3.3 This Local Development Scheme (LDS), sets out the timetable for the production of Local Plan documents, neighbourhood plans and SPDs between 2013 and 2021. It can be viewed on the Council's website.

5 Sixth Revised Version of the Local Development Scheme [Approved 26 March 2013]v2 3.4 The adopted Policies Map that accompanies the Local Plan incorporates policies from the adopted Core Strategy as well as from the existing 1997/2004 Local Plan. As new Local Plan documents are adopted, their policies will be added to the policies map. The older policies which are superseded will be deleted.

The Long Term

3.5 The long term intention is to bring together the suite of Local Plan documents into a single local plan which will cover the period from 2021 to 2035 and contain site allocations, development management policies and area specific policies for the whole District, apart from National Park and AONB areas, into a single document. This document will be the means by which broad locations identified in the Local Plan - Land Allocations are brought forward

Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs)

3.6 Supplementary Planning documents add further detail to the policies in the Local Plan. They provide further guidance for development on specific sites, or on particular issues, such as design. SPDs are a material consideration in planning decisions but do not have the statutory weight of Local Plan policies.

3.7 The Council is currently progressing a number of Development Briefs which are SPDs. A list of these documents and a timetable for their production is set out in the following pages.

Local Plan Documents

Cumbria Prepared by Cumbria County Council Mineral & Cumbria County Council formally adopted the Cumbria Minerals and Waste Local Waste Development Framework Core Strategy and Generic Development Plan Control Policies Development Plan Documents. These documents contain policies and allocations for minerals and waste related development outside National Parks. Adopted 23 April 2009. Cumbria County Council has published a draft Minerals and Waste Local Plan which will supersede these documents. Consultation commenced February 2013

South Lakeland The Core Strategy provides the strategic planning framework for the Core Strategy District, outside the National Parks. It sets out the long-term spatial vision and the strategic objectives quantity and distribution of development and policies to deliver the vision. Adopted October 2010.

Local Plan - Identifies or ‘allocates’ land within the District, outside the National Land Parks, for specific types of development such as housing and Allocations employment. Currently under examination and expected to be adopted November 2013.

Local Plan The Local Plan Development Management Policies will set out the Development criteria against which planning applications will be considered including Management design and environmental standards.. Policies

Community The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) will be a new charge on Infrastructure development which will be used to support critical infrastructure to Levy (CIL) deliver the Core Strategy. Under changes being consulted upon, a charging proportion of CIL receipts would go directly to Parish and Town Councils schedule to fund local community infrastructure projects.

Local Plan The Gypsies and Travellers Document will draw on the findings of an Gypsies & updated Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation Assessment to set out Travellers needs for gypsy and traveller sites and the Council’s strategy for meeting those needs.

7 Sixth Revised Version of the Local Development Scheme [Approved 26 March 2013]v2 Local Plan Documents

Local Plan - The Canal Head Local Plan will provide a regeneration framework Kendal Canal for modern employment, housing, leisure and supporting commercial Head development, better links with the town centre and, in the longer term, enabling the restoration of the Lancaster Canal. The Area Action Plan will ensure a strategic approach, avoid piecemeal development, build developer confidence and provide a focus for community engagement.

Local Plan The Arnside and Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is an are Arnside & of national landscape importance. It covers part of South Lakeland Silverdale Area District and part of Lancaster District The national importance of this of Outstanding area means that development needs have to be met in a way which Natural Beauty reflects the special character of the area. In order to plan in a consistent (AONB) way across the AONB both in terms of the identification of sites and development management policies, SLDC and Lancaster City Council are working on a joint Local Plan for the AONB which will be prepared in close consultation with local communities.

Neighbourhood The Localism Act (2011) introduced reforms to planning system and Plans enables communities to create Neighbourhood Plans for their area with the support of the Council. The Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 provide further detail to the process of Neighbourhood Planning, including the consultation and publication of neighbourhood areas, forums and plans. Heversham and Hincaster Parishes are currently the only Parishes which have applied to prepare a neighbourhood plan.

‘saved’ Local There are also some saved policies from the adopted 1997 Local Plan, Plan which will remain part of the Council’s planning policies until replaced (see Appendix 1). Some have been superseded by Core Strategy policies and some will be wholly or partially superseded by Land Allocations policies.. Note in the event of a conflict between an existing saved policy and the National Planning Policy Framework, the latter will take precedence. Adopted, September 1997. Alterations adopted March 2006

Local Plan Supplementary Planning Documents

Wind Energy A Supplementary Planning Document on Wind Energy has already been prepared by Cumbria County Council in partnership with other Cumbrian Authorities and adopted as Supplementary Guidance to the Cumbria Structure Plan in December 2007. It has subsequently been adopted by SLDC as Supplementary Planning Guidance to the Core Strategy in January 2012.

Development Development Briefs give guidance on development on specific sites. They Brief(s) show which policies of the Local Plan apply to each specific site as well as detailed requirements on siting, access, design and landscaping. Development Briefs are subject to public consultation with the public and developers and delivery partners.. Once adopted, they are used to assist the master planning of development and inform the consideration of planning applications.

final Submission version.

Habitats A Habitats Regulations Assessment of plans must be undertaken to Regulations establish whether or not the proposals within the plan are likely to have Assessment and significant effects on any areas of international biodiversity importance. Appropriate Where the Habitats Regulations Assessment cannot state with certainty Assessment that there will be no significant effects, an Appropriate Assessment is also required to determine the likelihood of such effects, what these effects will be and whether and how these might be mitigated. The Habitats regulations Assessment and, where relevant, the Appropriate Assessment reports will accompany the relevant plan at consultation and publication stages.

Monitoring Reviews progress made on preparing Local Plan (LDF) documents and Report assesses the effectiveness of policies. In the past this has had to be submitted to the Secretary of State but this requirement no longer applies following adoption of the Localism Act 2011.

Evidence Base The evidence base includes data collected and analysed by South Lakeland District Council and studies carried out by consultants on behalf of the Council. The Local Plan (LDF) will also have regard to a number of Strategies and other policy documents prepared by South Lakeland District Council and other organisations. Additional studies or reviews of existing studies will be undertaken as work progresses on the Local Plan (LDF).
