Revised Longparish VDS

Draft Revised Longparish VDS SPD

A revised Village Design Statement (VDS) Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) has been prepared for the Parish of Longparish.

If and when adopted, the document will form part of the Local Development Framework (LDF) for the area. The LDF forms the basis for decisions on land use planning affecting the area.

The public consultation period during which representations can be made is Friday 15th November 2024 – 17.00 Friday 3rd January 2025.

Comments should either be:

  • Sent in writing to Planning Policy, Test Valley Borough Council, Beech Hurst, Weyhill Road, ANDOVER, Hampshire, SP10 3AJ
  • Emailed to neighbourhoodplanning@testvalley.gov.uk

The SPD regulations require the following documents to be prepared to accompany the process of consulting and adopting the SPD.

The Council has not prepared a Sustainability Appraisal (SA) for the SPD as:

  • It is not considered that the SPD would have significant social, environmental or economic effects that are not covered in the SA prepared for the Revised Local Plan DPD
  • It is not required by the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Directive 2001/42/EC

Section 180(5)(d) Planning Act 2008 removed the compulsory requirement for a SA for an SPD.
