Planning Policy
Planning policy is currently undergoing major changes at both national and local levels and we are working to influence these changes in Marple's favour. At national level we work through "Civic Voice" the national body for the civic movement. At the local level we consult directly with the Stockport MBC.
Over the next few years the Stockport Unitary Development Plan (UDP) will be replaced by a Local Development Framework (LDF). This will guide development within the borough over the next 15 years and beyond.
The first stage of this plan, The Core Strategy, was agreed in April 2011 and sets down why change is needed, what should be done and where, when and how it is going to happen. Full details of the Core strategy can be found here.
We have responded to the Core Strategy and our response can be found here.
The next stage of the LDF will be the preparation of the Allocations DPD. This document will consider in detail development sites throughout the borough (there are 18 sites in Marple) and assess their suitability for development. Stockport MBC will consult on this during the latter part of 2011 and 2012. A copy of the Allocations DPD papers can be found here. Our response to the Allocations DPD consultation can be found here (Appraisal Screening report) and here (Issues and Options report)
Planning Applications
We monitor all planning applications in Marple and, where appropriate, submit objections and comment to the local authority.
Our principal concerns are to protect the built environment and encourage good development.
All planning applications can be viewed here on the planning applications Quick Search page of the SMBC website.
N.B. use 'More search options' to limit the number of records displayed
Applications on which The Civic Society has submitted comments or objections can be viewed on the News Page.
