Preferred Options Site Allocations and Policies (incorporating IP-One Area Action Plan) DPD Review
Representation ID: 25675
Received: 11/03/2019
Respondent: Mr Matt Clarke
Representation Summary:
The site has constraints in the form of flood risk issues and other contamination, which will affect the site's viability and ability to accommodate an entirely residential scheme. A more viable use for the site would be redevelopment to include a multi-storey car park with hotel, although retaining scope for an element of residential as part of a mixed-use approach. It is therefore considered that this site allocation, as currently worded, is not justified as it fails to properly consider viability. As such, it fails to meet the tests of soundness required by paragraph 35 of the NPPF (2019).
