The LDF Process
How should sport be represented?
Site-specific allocations will provide a basis for assessing what sport infrastructure is needed, how this can be integrated with other developments and with other needs (e.g. health and culture) and how such provision might be funded through development obligations. Based on a robust local needs assessment (demanded by PPG17), there should be the identification of existing key facilities (indoor and outdoor, built and open [such as playing fields]), highlighting any deficiencies. The needs assessment should also be used in the consideration of what specific sites should be identified for sport, such as how sports provision relates to future housing being proposed, either broadly in the Core Strategy or more precisely as particular allocations.
