Draft Night-time Economy Supplementary Planning Document (SPD)

In 2019 the LLDC prepared a draft Night-time Economy Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). The SPD was prepared to support the revised policies by providing planning guidance with respect to the protection and provision of cultural and night-time uses across the whole of the planning area. It provides specific guidance on the implementation of the recently adopted Local Plan 2020 policies, particularly retail, employment and other main town centre uses. The SPD also sets further centre specific guidance, with the focus on the nigh time uses, for the 5 identified centres plus Stratford High Street.
