Local Development Framework

The Government has introduced radical changes to the planning system and Three Rivers District Council is currently preparing a replacement for the Three Rivers Local Plan. The new plan will be called the Three Rivers Local Development Framework.

This area of the website has been set up to help local people and businesses to have a say in how they would like the area to be developed.

The Local Development Framework will consist of:

• Local Development Scheme

• Statement of Community Involvement

• Core Strategy

• Site Allocations Development Plan Document

• Supplementary Planning Documents

• Annual Monitoring Report

The Local Development Framework will be informed by an Evidence Base and will also be subject to Sustainability Appraisal.
