Supplementary Planning Documents are part of the Local Development Framework and will be developed to further define and implement the policies and strategies contained within the Development Plan Documents when needed. These documents will also be subject to public consultation under The Town and Country Planning (Local Development) (England) Regulations 2004.
Supplementary Planning Documents will have a greater weight than Supplementary Planning Guidance prepared under the old planning system, because they will have complied with the requirements for community involvement and sustainability appraisal.
On 28th October 2008 the Council adopted the Residential Design Guide Supplementary Planning Document as part of the South Bucks Local Development Framework. It sets out the Council's guidance to secure high quality residential development which respects and enhances the character of the local area. The Guide relates to the whole of the South Bucks District Council's administrative area.
Copies of the Residential Design Guide, Statement prepared pursuant to Regulation 18 (4) of the Town and Country Planning (Local Development) (England) Regulations 2004 and the Adoption Statement prepared pursuant to sections 16 (2) and 19 of the said Regulations are available below. The Adoption Statement also sets out other locations where copes of the documents are available.
