Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document
Representation ID: 21684
Received: 28/04/2010
Respondent: Aber Ltd
Agent: Colliers International
This is an existing employment site, which is in a fairly isolated location within the Green Belt and as such it would be difficult to create a defensible boundary if this site is developed for residential.
In addition, this site is subject to a high risk of flooding (Zone 3), and its redevelopment for residential would replace a less vulnerable use (employment) with a more vulnerable use (residential).
The preference would be to safeguard the site for employment and see it redeveloped for light industrial use.
