This Charter has been produced to explain the standards of performance and services which you can expect in relation to Development Control from South Derbyshire District Council.
It briefly explains the Planning System so as to make the process of decision making more open and straightforward. The aim is that we should work together to improve our quality of service and enhance and protect the environment whilst, at the same time, allowing necessary development to take place in an appropriate way.
The Council is committed to improving the quality of the built environment and preserving and enhancing the countryside. Planning is a complex subject often seen as a balancing act regulating changes to the environment in the interests of the wider community.
The District Council recognises that potential conflicts exist and it is important that you understand what can reasonably be expected within the clearly defined limitations placed on the Council.
- Summary: Sets out the strategy for bringing together partners from the public, private and voluntary sector to work with the local community to make South Derbyshire a safe place to live, work and play.
