Unitary development plan (UDP)

The Unitary Development Plan (UDP)

UDP policies saved as of 13 July 2009

On 10 July 2009 the Government Office of London issued a Direction at to which UDP policies are extended beyond the life of the 2006 adopted UDP. These "saved" policies are listed in the Schedule. (See attached letter which lists the policies)

Since 1991, all planning applications and appeals have to be determined in accordance with the development plan, unless material considerations indicate otherwise.

The council's development plan is the London Plan and also Croydon's Replacement Unitary Development Plan 2006 as amended by the Government Office of London's Direction Schedule dated 10 July 2009. Any UDP policy not listed in the Schedule no longer existed as of 13 July 2009.

The UDP consists of a written statement and an interactive proposals map.

You can view or download the written statement by chapter and click here to download the interactive proposals map.
