Site Allocations Policies Evidence Base

This Evidence Base sets out a list of the core documents informing the Independent Examination of the Re-submitted Site Allocations Policies and Proposals Map of the Cumbria Minerals & Waste Development Framework (MWDF).

Please note that some documents in this list were also included in the Evidence Base for the Core Strategy and Generic Development Control Policies examination in 2008, as well as for the first Site Allocations Policies examination in 2010.  Where these have been superseded or are no longer relevant, the hyperlink has been deactivated and a new reference number provided in brackets to direct you to any revised/updated document(s).

The documents are grouped into four sets as follows:

• Local Evidence Base Documents
