Mid Sussex District Council has recently adopted a new District Plan 2014-2031 (www.midsussex.gov.uk/districtplan) which has replaced the 2004 Local Plan as the development plan for Mid Sussex district. In light of this, the Mid Sussex Development and Infrastructure SPD 2006 is being refreshed:
•To ensure the SPD complies with all relevant national planning policy and guidance;
• To update the document to ensure that it complies with the relevant policies in the District Plan; and
• To update the requirements for each type of contribution and the costs of these contributions.
Three separate documents have been prepared to replace the 2006 Development and Infrastructure SPD:
•A Development Infrastructure and Contributions SPD, which sets out the overall framework for the management of planning obligations;
• An Affordable Housing SPD, which provides more detailed information on the requirements for on-site and off-site affordable housing provision, and
• A Viability SPD which provides information on the viability assessment process.
The consultation draft SPDs can be found at: www.midsussex.gov.uk/spd and are also available to view in local libraries, Help Points and the District Council's offices in Haywards Heath.
