Appendix 1 Land Allocations Local Plan

Dover District Council
Land Allocations Local Plan Adopted 2015
5
1.14 Chapter 3 is the main body of the Plan. It identifies the site allocations for development
on a settlement basis starting with Dover, as the major focus for development, followed by
Deal and then Sandwich, as the main focus for development in the rural areas (the strategic
expansion of Aylesham remains promoted through saved Local Plan policies) before
considering Local Centres and Villages. Each settlement contains a summary of its
characteristics, with particular reference to housing, employment and retail and how
development in that location will meet the aims and objectives set out in the Core Strategy.
For each settlement where allocations have been made there is a description of the
settlement. A policy setting out criteria that subsequent planning applications need to address
is provided where necessary. Appendix 3 includes plans defining the boundaries of allocated
sites to show how the Policies Map will be revised when the Plan is adopted. Where
necessary, a policy to summarise residential allocations identifies amendments to settlement
confines which are likely to result in developments too small (under 5 dwellings) to warrant
a site allocation and these amendments are also shown on the plans in Appendix 3.
