Notes
1. The Code of Best Practice was published jointly by representatives of central and local government and the mobile phone industry in 2002. Its aim is to provide practical advice to ensure the delivery of effective communications and consultation between operators, local authority and local people.
2. Planning Policy Guidance Notes (PPGs) have gradually been replaced by Planning Policy Statements (PPSs), but PPG8 had not been replaced at the time of conducting this case study.
3. Recently there has been a reform of the land use planning system in England. The reformation is set out in the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. The key changes are the abolition of Structure Plans and the replacement of Local Plans and Unitary Development Plans by Local Development Frameworks (LDFs). Whatever constitutes a development plan in the area would retain development plan status for three years from the commencement of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act. At the time of undertaking this case study, the Structure and Local Plans of the Peak District National Park Authority had not been replaced by LDFs.
4. Landscape Character Assessment is a tool to identify what makes a place unique, and provides a mechanism by which local communities and other stakeholders can contribute towards the decisions that affect their local surroundings. The Guidance for England and Scotland was published in 2002 commissioned by the Countryside Agency and the Scottish Natural Heritage.
