The main role of the Planning Policy team is to produce the statutory planning policy framework which guides the future land use planning in North Tyneside. This is an ongoing process with new documents being drafted, consulted upon and published regularly.
The current plan is the North Tyneside 'Unitary Development Plan', which was adopted in 2002. However, since the release of the Planning & Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, a new policy framework, the 'Local Development Framework' (LDF), has become the focus of attention for the planning policy section. This new framework will eventually replace the Unitary Development Plan, and will offer a more pro-active approach to planning. The planning policy section also produces other specific policy documents, these documents often deal with single issues or individual sites, and can include Supplementary Planning Documents, Development Briefs and Character Statements. These documents should also be given due consideration in development proposals.
