The Bristol Development Framework (BDF) will replace the Bristol Local Plan. This will happen over a period of time as the BDF is developed. In Bristol a Joint Waste Core Strategy is also included. This has been drawn up by the four councils in the West of England Partnership. Bristol City Council has published the Bristol Development Framework: Core Strategy See Bristol City Council website Go to 'Planning' pages on Bristol City Council website. Consultation on the Site Allocations Development Plan Document (DPD) started in June 2010. The responses are still being collated and used to draft a revised Site Allocations map which was planned to be consulted on in Autumn 2011. However, because of the lack of decision on sites identified through the Parks and Green Spaces Strategy: Area Green Space Plans. consultation the programme has slipped. It is hoped to restart the programme in January 2012. This consultation was expected to lead to the publication of a Site Allocations DPD Options Document in May 2011 with the expectation that this would be adopted in May 2012. The programme has now slipped. Full information on the sites, identified in the 'Call for Sites' in December 2008, is on the Bristol City Council website, including maps showing location of the sites and a full list of the sites with the proposed uses.
