The Future Planning of Purbeck

Local Development Framework

The Council has commenced the review of the Purbeck District Local Plan, in line with the new Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act. The current Local Plan will be replaced by a Local Development Framework. The Framework will be made up of a series of documents, rather than just being one like the old Local Plan.

Purbeck Local Plan: Final Edition

The Purbeck District Local Plan: Final Edition sets out policies and proposals to guide development in Purbeck District up to 2011 and beyond.

Evidence Base

The Local Development Framework is not prepared in isolation. A sound evidence base is crucial to the successful preparation of the Purbeck Local Development Framework.
