Open Space Supplementary Planning Document
(SPD) August 2008
Malvern Hills District Council has prepared an Open Space
Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) as part of the Local
Development Framework (LDF) for the District. The SPD was adopted
on teh 5th August 2008
The SPD sets out the District Council’s approach to securing
open space, sport and recreational facilities through new housing
development. The guidance forms the basis for negotiation with new
housing developers for contributions towards the provision of
appropriate open space, sport and recreational facilities and their
long term maintenance, as referred to in policies CN12 and CN13 of
the adopted Malvern Hills District Local Plan.
The SDP is supported by an audit of open space, sport and
recreation facilities compliant with PPG17 undertaken by
consultants and entitled “Malvern Hills District Open Space Study
2007”.
