Emerging Local Development Framework<br />

The Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act reformed the English planning system in<br />

September 2004. Unitary Development Plans (UDPs) and Supplementary Planning<br />

Guidance (SPGs) will be replaced by a range of documents that will form the <strong>Bradford</strong><br />

District Local Development Framework (LDF).<br />

The current Replacement Unitary Development Plan adopted in October 2005 is the<br />

statutory development plan for <strong>Bradford</strong> District. On 30 th September 2008, the Council<br />

received the Secretary of States Direction (under paragraph 1(3) of schedule 8 to the<br />

Planning & Compulsory Purchase Act 2004) and Schedule of Saved policies.<br />

The LDF is made up of different types of planning document known as Local Development<br />

Documents (LDDs) which include:- Development Plan Documents (DPDs) and<br />

Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs), and will set out the guidelines for spatial<br />

development in the <strong>Bradford</strong> District in conformity with the Regional Spatial <strong>Strategy</strong>. The<br />

LDF must also seek to implement the spatial aspects of the Community <strong>Strategy</strong> prepared by<br />

<strong>Bradford</strong> Vision.<br />

The timetable for producing the documents is<br />

set out in the Local Development Scheme<br />

(LDS), which sets out the details for producing,<br />

monitoring and reviewing Local Development<br />

Documents.<br />

The Statement of Community Involvement<br />

(SCI) sets out how the Council will involve the<br />

local community and stakeholders in the<br />

preparation and review of Local Development<br />

Documents.<br />

All of the documents mentioned in the diagram<br />

must take into account a number of important<br />

and overarching issues. These include the<br />

environment, sustainability, equality and the<br />

needs and aspirations of the local community.<br />

An integral part of preparing the Local<br />

Development Framework is the Sustainability<br />

Appraisal (SA) process. The aim of the process<br />

is to assess the overall environmental,<br />
