The Local Development Framework (LDF) is the new development plan for Eastbourne. We are preparing a series of planning documents following reforms to the planning system introduced by the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and subsequently revised through the Town and Coutry Planning Regulations (Amendment) 2008.The LDF is a collection of planning documents that will eventually take over from the current Borough Plan.
