Monitoring and Land Supply

Authority Monitoring Reports (AMR)

We are required to monitor the effectiveness of our plans and strategies and update our work programme on a regular basis. We do this by conducting site surveys of housing and commercial construction at the end of each monitoring period in April, and publishing the results in the Authority Monitoring Report (AMR).

The Authority Monitoring Report (AMR):

• Sets out our progress against the Local Development Scheme (LDS), which details when and how we will produce new planning documents and policies
• Provides a record of how the district is performing and how much development is taking place
• Assesses how that meets our targets
• Sets out projections for future development in the district
• Is updated annually

Housing Land Supply 

The Adoption of the Local Plan now supersedes the April 2023 report and provides the latest position on the councils land supply (in Table 3.2).

As of mid-March 2024, there is 5.65 years of housing supply in Dover District. Accordingly, it is considered that the assessment contained within the Land Supply report shows that the Council can demonstrate a 4-year housing land supply for the purposes of the updated NPPF 2023.
