Coastal Local Development Order (LDO) and Risk Assessment/Evacuation Plan templates
The purpose of the adopted Coastal LDO is to assist holiday and caravan parks within the defined Coastal Zone with their recovery from the economic impact of Covid-19, as well as encouraging the broader economic regeneration of the area. This will allow approved sites within the zone to be open for holiday purposes at any time between 1st March to 5th January the following year.
One of the requirements of the order is to provide a Flood Risk Assessment and an Evacuation Plan of the designated site. To support businesses, Lincolnshire Coastal Destination BID has commissioned a Flood Risk Management Consultant to draft the attached templates to assist those of you who wish to proceed with an application for an extended season. The consultant has worked closely with Paul Edwards at ELDC to ensure that the templates reflect what is required from their perspective. These templates can be used for future applications should the need arise.
You must follow the Guidance for making Coastal Local Development Order notifications, therefore please follow and complete the points as illustrated in the link below.
