As has been said previously, a change in the position of the PSZ could prevent use of at least part of the proposed Nestuda Way Business Area.

Why do we need even more Business Units ? The traffic congestion has not been considered. The well intention wording has no obligation on JAAP to deliver to their policy. If heavy mechanical industrial would make them more money, JAAP would have no morals in taking that option and totally disregarding the policy to the detriment of local residents.

I do not consider that there should be further construction in such close proximity to the threshhold of Runway 06. Who knows what future regulations the Civil Aviation Authority may come out with which could possibly compromise use of the runway.

We support the broad aim of the document, that being to provide a framework for the expansion and growth of the London Southend Airport and its Environs. In particular, we support the strategic promotion and growth of the airport and its environ for an focus for employment.

We welcome and endorse the allocation of the airport and its environs as an employment growth area, and agree with the proposal to allocate new and enlarged business parks in order to provide for a significant amount additional employment floorspace.

The allocation of a new business park, Saxon Business Park, with around 99,000sqm of employment floorspace is welcomed, as is the allocation of a new Business Park in Nestuda Way with around 10,000sqm of employment floorspace.

The JAAP uses the methodology set out in the Homes and Community Agency's 'Employment Densities Guide - 2nd Edition 2010' document in order to calculate the likely employment density ratios for different forms of development. We consider that this is the most appropriate method for calculating employment densities, and as such expect Southend-On-Sea Borough Council to use this when assessing future site allocations and development proposals.

By facilitating and encouraging growth in employment floorspace within the Southend Airport region, this should enable under utilised employment sites elsewhere in the Borough to be brought forwards for alternative uses including mixed use/residential. Clearly each site would be considered on its own merits, and the presumption in favour of sustainable development and the requirement to boost housing provision as set out in the NPPF would be part of this consideration.
I trust that the above comments are clear and will be taken into account. In the meantime should you require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
