Settles the major threshold and feeds the density calculation.
Decides which policy family applies. The council's policies map shows settlement boundaries and Green Belt.
Tick as many as apply: each opens a different limb, and they are alternatives, not a hierarchy.
Major for housing is 10 or more homes, or a site of 0.5 hectares or more. Either limb is sufficient. Strategic is a defined term: phased, masterplanned, significant infrastructure.
Unmet need is not defined, but it must be evidenced. Inside the Green Belt, footnote 41 narrows it to the two supply measures.
Reasonable walking distance is around 800 metres. Where topography, poor routes or a physical barrier would put that walk off, around 10 minutes' actual walking time is used instead. Where only part of the site is within reach, the station limbs and the density floor apply only to that part.
DP3 attaches weight to design quality generally, and is not confined to isolated sites. Separate from the HO11(1)(e) route.
Tick anything engaged, not merely nearby.
Record every asset affected: they attract different policies and can take different levels of harm. Where more than one asset of the same type is affected, assess the one that would take the greatest effect.
