Area Action Plans (AAP)
An Area Action Plan (AAP) is a Development Plan Document (DPD) that provides specific planning policy and guidance for an area where significant regeneration or investment needs to be managed. AAPs address the specific challenges of an area and to specify the required land uses in particular locations and identify key strategic interventions. AAPs have a strong focus on delivery and implementation, and form a statutory component of the Local Development Framework (LDF).
The Council has four Area Action Plans (AAPs). The two town centres of Hackney Central and Dalston provide potential for growth in housing, leisure and retailing. Hackney Wick, given its location within and adjacent to the Olympic Park, can provide for a range of employment and recreation opportunities. Manor House has the potential for change and improvement to support the regeneration of the Woodberry Down Estate.
- Dalston Area Action Plan
- Hackney Central Area Action Plan
- Hackney Wick Area Action Plan - Phase 1 adopted September 2010
- Manor House Area Action Plan
Three of these AAPs have been prepared and adopted in two phases. The Phase 1 AAPs were adopted by Council prior to the adoption of Hackney Council's Core Strategy. The Council's Core Strategy was adopted in December 2010 and the AAPs are now being prepared for publication, submission and then adoption by the Council to form part of a suite of DPDs comprising Hackney's LDF.
