Guidance
A Climate Emergency Compliance Form completed with the information relevant to the application type. This needs to include where the required information is located in other accompanying documentation submitted.
This required form is in relation to the Plymouth and South West Devon Climate Emergency Planning Statement, which responds directly to the Climate Emergency declarations issued across Plymouth and South West Devon. It identifies exactly what all new development should do to meet the challenge of climate change.
It has the status of an interim policy statement and guidance and therefore must be taken into account when determining a planning application. It is not the same as a formal SPD but should be used and considered in a similar way in the planning process.
The documents set out in Links and Useful Guidance provide further information and guidance. The Climate Emergency Planning Statement assistance spreadsheet provides guidance on completing the compliance form.
