The Residential Design Standards Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) was adopted by Cabinet on 18 October 2011. It replaces the 2008 Residential Design Standards SPD. Consultation on the 2011 SPD closed on 2 June 2011.
The updated SPD includes:
- Correct references to policies by adding in new core strategy policies and removing reference to Southwark Plan policies no longer being used
- Factual update of the information on density standards, to reflect new core strategy density policy
- Adding in an appendix setting out how density is calculated. This has been carried over from the Southwark Plan
- Adding in additional guidance on minimum dwelling sizes - these are in line with those proposed in the London Plan
