Fareham Local Development Framework

Supplementary Planning Documents

Supplementary Planning Documents will supplement policies and proposals in the Development Plan Documents and may take the form of site development briefs, or issue-based documents.  The preparation of Supplementary Planning Documents involves evidence gathering and an initial draft.

Supplementary Planning Documents are non-statutory documents which are not subject to independent examination and do not have Development Plan status. However, they will be subject to a thorough process of public consultation, in accordance with the Council's Statement of Community Involvement, and will be subject to Sustainability Appraisal. They can also be 'material considerations' when making decisions about new development.

Existing and Proposed Supplementary Planning Documents

Affordable Housing

This document sets out the process and mechanisms for the provision of affordable housing in Fareham, including design guidance where applicable.

An Affordable Housing SPD and a Sustainability Appraisal of the SPD have been adopted following public consultation.

Developer Contributions

A Developer Contributions SPD will be prepared to include all requirements and standards for the collection of developer contributions.  This will include an update of the Affordable Housing SPD (adopted in December 2005) and the Open Space Supplementary Planning Guidance.  (1 Mb)

It will also incorporate the County Council's requirements for Developers' Contributions towards Children's Services Facilities (50.95 Kb) and Transport Contributions Policy, both of which have been adopted by the borough council as a material consideration in the determination of planning applications.
