DM30 Inclusive Design and the Built Environment

The Council will seek to ensure that inclusive design principles are applied at the very outset of any development. New development (including the alteration, extension or change of use of buildings and land) to which the public have access should where practical and reasonable, be designed so that everyone, including disabled people, can conveniently reach, enter and use any buildings or use any open air facilities. The Council will seek to secure best practice by commending inclusive design guidelines to developers.
