Whilst it is accepted that a number of existing employment sites may be appropriate for redevelopment for alternative uses, it is not considered that for all four sites this represents the most appropriate option; particularly when the proposed replacement employment sites are not in as sustainable locations. In addition, a number of the proposed employment sites would not satisfy the locational requirements of the NPPF.

Policy BFR1 - Star Lane Industrial Estate, Great Wakering

To meet the number of new jobs required in the District, if existing employment sites are de-allocated, then additional employment sites will be required. As the supply of employment land within the District is limited, any new sites will require the release of Green Belt land. As these sites will be outside of the existing urban areas, it is unlikely that these sites will be in as sustainable locations as the current employment sites.
This site is well located with regards the strategic road network and as such it is considered to be a sustainable location
It is also noted that Great Wakering is proposed to have an additional 250 new dwellings as one the preferred housing options. Combined with the housing proposed with the Star Lane Industrial Estate, this would significantly increase the size of the settlement, without providing sufficient employment opportunities. This would increase the level of out commuting and given the characteristics of the District, the majority of this would be by private car.

This site has good access to the road network, and is well located with regards the train station.
This site has the opportunity to be redeveloped for a 'mixed use' commercial scheme, including both employment and community and leisure uses appropriate to a town centre location, in accordance with the provisions of the NPPF.

This is a former employment site, which is in an 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 (Zones 2 & 3) and its redevelopment for residential would replace a less vulnerable use (employment) with a more vulnerable use (residential).

Support the proposed allocation but would comment that the southern part of the site lies within Flood Zone 3; the development would need to be designed in order to ensure that the more vulnerable uses (e.g. residential) are not located in this area..
In addition, it would be necessary to create a defensible Green Belt boundary on the western side of the site.
