Local development framework


The City of London Corporation is preparing a new plan called the Local Development Framework (LDF). It will contain the vision, key policies and proposals for planning the City. The LDF will eventually replace the Unitary Development Plan. The LDF will contain a series of documents that together set out the City's planning strategy. 

An outline of the LDF, including the timetable for its preparation, can be found in the LDF Bulletin.

These are the LDF documents currently available or in preparation:

Core Strategy

Local Development Scheme

This sets out in detail the documents to be included in the LDF and the timetable for producing them, including opportunities for public participation.  Please note that the timetable in the Local Development Scheme has been revised and the up-to-date programme can be found in the LDF Bulletin above.
