Mepa, is issuing for public consultation updates to the Design and Policy Guidance, DC2005. The Authority is putting up for public consultation amendments which will repeal certain policies in the previous document published last year. DC 2005 is a compendium of policy and design guidelines, mostly for the use of architects and those connected to the construction industry. The proposed amendments are essentially due to fine tuning resulting from practical experience.
Policy 3.2 (Table 3.2) Villas for High Ridge were omitted from DC 2000 version.
Policy 3.7 - Last paragraph has been re-worded to clarify that one-bedroom units are permitted within blocks of less than five units.
Policy 7.2 - Inconsistency with Diagram 7.5 clarified.
