Longstock VDS SPD

A Village Design Statement (VDS) Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) for the Parish of Longstock was adopted by the Council on 29^th June 2010, following a recommendation from the Council’s Cabinet on 9^th June 2010.

This document now forms part of the Local Development Framework (LDF) for the area and therefore forms part of the basis for decisions on land-use planning affecting that area.

The Council has not prepared a Sustainability Appraisal (SA) for the SPD as:

• it is not considered that the SPD would have significant social, environmental or economic effects that are not covered in the SA prepared for the Core Strategy DPD;
• it is not required by the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Directive 2001/42/EC;
• Section 180(5)(d) Planning Act 2008 removed the compulsory requirement for a SA for an SPD.

For further information on this SPD please phone 01264 368000 or email the Planning Policy Team at planningpolicy@testvalley.gov.uk.
