Draft Open Space Standards Paper 2020

This document sets out proposed revised standards for open space provision by identifying deficiencies and surpluses in existing and future provision. The revised standards will inform the policies to be contained within the Council’s Local Plan and help to set the approach to securing open space facilities through new housing development and developer contributions towards the provision of appropriate open space facilities and their long-term maintenance.
