Development Management DPD

Overview

The Development Management Development Plan Document (DM DPD) will, once it is adopted, become part of the City’s statutory Development Plan, which guides decisions on all development and regeneration activity across the City.

The DM DPD will provide detailed policy guidance on a range of planning matters, and will principally be used to make decisions on planning applications.  It will complement the strategic policies in the emerging Birmingham Development Plan (BDP), helping to deliver the vision, objectives and strategy for the whole City.

Why your views matter

This consultation document is the first stage in preparing the DM DPD.  It gives notice of the Council's intention to produce the DM DPD, setting out the title, purpose and content, together with a list and short description of the proposed policies. 

There is a statutory requirement to notify various consultees of the subject of the DPD, and invite each of them to make representations to us about what it ought to contain.

The consultation will run from 7th September to 19th October 2015.  This is your opportunity to contribute to preparing the DPD.  A copy of the Consultation Document is available below, and you can submit your views on line here.

The Consultation Document and questionaire is also online at www.birmingham.gov.uk/dmdpd, where you can download a copy of the consultation form to fill in offline.  You can email your completed form to:

What happens next

Following the consultation on this document we will consider your responses as we produce the new Policies.  We will consult on them in due course, in accordance with statutory procedures.
