8. Development Briefs All dwellings must achieve Code for Sustainable Homes Level 4 and all non–residential development must meet BREEAM ‘excellent’ certification together with other environmentally sustainable requirements

11. The Future g). For all developments over 250 dwellings or 10,000 sq m, fund a post occupancy evaluation to assess the true sustainable performance of the building between 1 and 2 years after occupation; and h). For all developments over 500 dwellings, undertake a BREEAM Communities assessment at the master-plan stage with a requirement that at least a BREEAM ‘excellent’ standard (or equivalent) be achieved; Policy DM29, Environmentally Sustainable Development a)-f) builds on SPD and updates policies….
