  • Opportunity and Intensification Areas – 2009 Compared with 2008 London Plan
    Opportunity and Intensification Areas – 2009 compared with 2008 London Plan Opportunity Areas – Policy Comparison The policies for the Opportunity and Intensification Areas are broadly similar for both the 2008 and 2009 London Plans. The differences are as follows: In the 2008 plan the areas are structured and broken down into the relevant sub-regional areas and form part of sub-regional policy, whereas in the updated plan there is a single table provided which covers all of the areas. The 2009 London Plan omits references to, “deliver good design, including public realm, open space and where appropriate, tall buildings.” In the 2008 Plan authorities should “seek to exceed” minimum housing targets for relevant sites whereas the 2009 Plan refers to “optimizing density” and “contributing to meeting the minimum guidelines”. This change of approach may account for some of the alterations in housing projections for some of the sites, both upwards and downwards.
