| Site Allocations and Policies Plan |
The Site Allocations and Policies Plan will demonstrate how the adopted Core Strategy, and crucially the policies which outline the borough’s ambitious targets for growth and development, will be delivered on the ground, as well as identifying areas to be protected from development. Together with the adopted Core Strategy and Development Management Policies it will provide the basis for determining planning applications.
The Local Plan should allocate enough land to meet the borough’s predicted needs over the plan period (2013-2028) which is identified in the adopted Core Strategy. The Site Allocations and Policies Plan will achieve this with a suite of site specific policies followed by the proposed options for land allocations. Once adopted, they will replace the remaining allocations that have been saved from the Copeland Local Plan 2001-2016. |
| West Cumbria Retail Studies |
In April 2008, Copeland Borough Council, Allerdale Borough Council and Cumbria County Council commissioned WYG Planning and Design to undertake an assessment of the current and future retail role of the main centres within the West Cumbria Sub-Region. The study includes an in-depth analysis of the retail provision within the main centres of the West Cumbria Sub-Region, including an assessment of the extent to which the centres are meeting the retail needs of the local population and the role of the local shopping network and the Sub-Regional shopping hierarchy. The West Cumbria Retail Study was published in April 2009.
The West Cumbria Retail Assessment Addendum was published in January 2012. |

| Strategic Flood Risk Assessment |
A significant proportion of the urban areas within Copeland are situated in close proximity to the coast and the large rivers of the Borough, and these areas are consequently at risk of coastal and fluvial flooding. However, these are not the only flood risks. There are many locations that are threatened by flooding from the numerous small watercourses that are features of the upland and rural nature of Copeland, and from overloaded drainage and sewage systems.
The Copeland Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) has been carried out to meet the following key objectives:
