Housing SPD

The Authority adopted the Housing SPD on 1st December 2023. The Housing SPD provides guidance to support the delivery of housing in Dartmoor National Park, it:

  • provides detailed guidance on how to use Local Plan housing policies
  • clarifies the Authority's expectations of housing development;
  • helps applicants make successful and streamlined applications which are good for Dartmoor and its communities; and
  • helps ensure the Authority makes consistent, robust and streamlined decisions on planning applications.

Together with the Local Plan, the Housing SPD forms a material planning consideration when we decide planning applications.
