SD10 Strategic and Local Regeneration

  1. The Mayor will provide leadership and support for regeneration through this Plan and his other strategies and programmes.
  2. Boroughs should:
    • identify Strategic Areas for Regeneration (see Figure 2.19) in Local Plans and develop policies that are based on a thorough understanding of the demographics of communities and their needs
    • seek to identify Local Areas for Regeneration taking into account local circumstances
    • engage and collaborate with communities, particularly those in Strategic and Local Areas for Regeneration, at an early stage and throughout the development of local development documents, strategies and regeneration programmes
  3. Development Plans, Opportunity Area Planning Frameworks and development proposals should contribute to regeneration by tackling inequalities and the environmental, economic and social barriers that affect the lives of people in the area, especially in Strategic and Local Areas for Regeneration.
  4. Boroughs and other stakeholders should develop locally-sensitive policies and initiatives and support development proposals that contribute to the renewal of town centres in Strategic and Local Areas for Regeneration (see Town Centres policies and Annex 1).
