LVMF Update

13 November 2009: The final draft of the London View Management Framework will be in the hands of Boris Johnson and Simon Milton for sign off in the next few days, with publication likely to follow a few weeks after. It is understood that the majority of the document will remain unchanged from the May 2009 draft, albeit with some potential technical amendments. Interestingly enough, the full draft of the London Plan (the LVMF’s rule-maker), published recently, will be at odds with the final version of the LVMF, due to some key changes to descriptions, assessment methods and viewing positions. Should these be adopted after the Examination in Public of the London Plan due next year, then the LVMF will need to be revised again to fall in line with the final version of the new London Plan, due in 2011.
