SHDC Development PLan DocumentsSHDC will soon produce new DPDs relating to market towns and rural areas. The Totnes and Dartington DPD which was at the Preferred Option Stage has been shelved - we don't really know why - and a new DPD will be written which will be issued at the same time as DPDs for Dartmouth, Kingsbridge, Ivybridge and the Rural Areas. These DPDs are intended to allocate sites for employment land and housing and our concern is that any other local considerations will not be included. Below is SHFoE's response to the invitation to contribute to the potential content of the new DPDs. |
