  • Kinver Neighbourhood Plan First Consultation Issues and Options Appendices
    Kinver Neighbourhood Plan First Consultation Issues and Options Appendices. Appendix 1. What is a Neighbourhood Development Plan? 1.1 Neighbourhood Development Plans (NDPs) were introduced through the Localism Act 2011 to give local people a greater say in planning decisions that affect their area. NDPs are neighbourhood level planning policy documents with policies designed to reflect the needs and priorities of local communities. 1.2 NDPs can identify where development should take place, set out local design principles so that buildings respond positively to local character, and protect important facilities, historic buildings, the natural environment and open spaces. Made (adopted) NDPs are part of the local statutory development plan for their area. Planning applications are determined in accordance with the Neighbourhood Plan unless ‘material considerations’ indicate otherwise. (‘Material Considerations’ are factors provided for in planning law, such as Highway safety and access, capacity of local infrastructure, effects on listed buildings, loss of light or privacy etc.; and higher-level planning policies including emerging policies). 1.3 A Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP) can cover a range of planning related issues. This document has been prepared as a first step in setting out the possible scope and range of planning issues the Kinver NDP could cover and potential policy options for addressing these issues. 1.4 It is important to remember that our Plan has to be ‘in general conformity’ with higher-level strategic planning policies. This means it has to sit within the strategic policies in the South Staffordshire Core Strategy, adopted in 2012 and accompanying policies maps1, and cannot provide for less new housing than allocated in the South Staffordshire Local Plan.
