D1: Delivery and monitoring
The council will deliver the spatial vision and strategic objectives of the Local Plan by:
- working with a range of partners to ensure sustainable development and regeneration opportunities are fully explored, including optimising the use of previously developed land and vacant buildings and the beneficial use of vacant historic buildings commensurate with their conservation;
- encouraging and supporting sustainable development that enhances the local distinctiveness of neighbourhoods and delivers regeneration objectives defined in London Plan Opportunity Area Planning Frameworks and Areas for Regeneration, and local area masterplans. In particular, this will relate to the Central Activities Zone, the London Plan Opportunity Areas of Vauxhall and Waterloo, the town centres of Brixton, Clapham, Streatham, West Norwood/Tulse Hill and to other well defined localities such as Loughborough Junction, Stockwell, Herne Hill, Upper Norwood/Crystal Palace and Kennington/Oval;
- supporting various initiatives such as neighbourhood plans, town centre partnerships, Business Improvement Districts and similar business networks and business-led and other neighbourhood management schemes in order to promote centres, assist in attracting inward investment, and co-ordinate and manage improvements to the public realm;
- helping to promote and maintain mixed, balanced and diverse communities within neighbourhoods, ensuring maximum accessibility for people with disabilities and a child-friendly environment;
- monitoring the implementation of policies and infrastructure on a regular basis and reviewing strategies for implementation as required
