Sustainability Appraisal
In light of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and Planning Policy Statement 12 : Local Development Frameworks, North Dorset District Council is required to produce a sustainability framework which will be used to appraise the policies and objectives of future Local Development Documents.
The purpose of Sustainability Appraisal (SA) is to promote sustainable development through the integration of social, environmental and economic considerations in the preparation of new Local Development Documents, which will be produced by the Council, and will eventually replace the District-Wide Local Plan. SA will help to identify and address any adverse effects that draft policies and strategies might have before the policies are adopted by the Council.
The Council’s SA Scoping Report, which contains the agreed sustainability framework, was adopted by the Council at the Cabinet meeting held on 1st March 2007. This Report can be viewed by clicking on the links to the right.
