Development Management DPD
About the Development Management DPD
The Development Management DPD (DM DPD) will contain the development policies that elaborate the Core Strategy adopted in November 2010. Together with the London Plan and the Council's Core Strategy, the DM DPD will form the development plan which Hackney Council will use to determine planning applications.
Please view the evidence base used for preparation of Hackney Local Development Framework (LDF). Please note that some of the evidence base will be updated as work completes.
Latest information and updates
The consultation draft Development Management DPD will be approved at the 25 June Cabinet. Consultation will take place for an anticipated 10 week period during July, August and September and confirmation of the exact dates will appear on this page shortly.
Sustainability Appraisal Scoping Report
A Sustainability Appraisal (SA) is an assessment process which aims to improve statutory planning policy documents. It identifies likely social, environmental and economic impacts and proposes changes to reduce negative and improve on positive effects. SA incorporates the requirements of the Strategic Environmental Assessment Directive EC/2001/42 (SEA Directive). The SA Scoping Report is the first stage of the SA process. The key social, environmental and economic evidence relating to the Local Development Document (LDD) is prepared to create a picture of the conditions in an area. The Sustainability Appraisal objectives which form the benchmark for the assessment are also developed. Please see the SA Scoping Report below which forms the framework for the assessment of the Development Management DPD.
