Local Development Framework

Last updated: 21 March 2012 09:42 UK

The Local Development Framework (LDF) is the term given to the folder of documents which will collectively provide the spatial planning policies for Portsmouth.  As more plans are adopted, the LDF will gradually replace the Local Plan.
