Locally specific requirements

Tranquillity

Where a local authority has mapped tranquillity, for example Staffordshire County Council, and has developed specific policies or a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) on this relevant to new development, it would be possible to add a tranquillity question to a locally tailored version of the Checklist.

Noise and light intrusion

Similarly, if a local authority has specific policies or SPD relating to minimising noise and light intrusion, especially in more rural areas, then it would be possible to make this part of a locally tailored version of the Checklist

This checklist is no longer supported

The Government announced that as part of its new policy on economic development all Regional Development Agencies, including Advantage West Midlands, will close.

This checklist will remain online to allow existing users to reference their existing projects. New accounts and projects can no longer be created.
