Planning Contributions and Affordable Housing SPD
Background to the Planning Contributions and Affordable Housing: Priorities and Delivery Supplementary Planning Document (SPD):
When planning permission is granted the Council is entitled to ask developers to pay for some of the infrastructure or other needs that their development generates. This SPD will provide guidance on what Torbay Council wishes to seek from developers in the way of planning contributions. The SPD will provide advice on the implementation of policies in the Saved Adopted Torbay Local Plan.
Stage in the planning process:
An initial 'Pre-Regulation 17' consultation on issues and options took place in Summer 2006. Following consideration of this, the Draft Regulation 17 SPD was published for consultation between 5th November and 14th December 2007. Following consideration of consultation comments by the LDF Working Party on 5th February and Cabinet on 20th February, the SPD was adopted by Council on 28th February 2008.
The previous Supplementary Planning Guidance 'The Provision of Affordable Housing in Torquay (2003)' has now been superseded.
Sustainability Appraisal:
It is essential that in formulating the Planning Contributions and Affordable Housing SPD consideration is given to the sustainability implications of each plan option. It is for this purpose that an independent sustainability appraisal has been compiled by Enfusion Ltd. This outlines some of the key sustainability issues associated with the draft SPD. The SA is accompanied by a Non-Technical Summary, a Statement of Sustainability and a Habitats Regulations Assessment Screening Report.
