The Island Site is situated within the Waterfront area to which this policy applies. As noted at para 5.21, parts of the operational port are also within it. ABP notes the desire of IBC to secure high density development in the interests of maximising the use of previously developed land, subject to that not compromising heritage assets and the historic character of Ipswich. ABP’s vision for the site (agreed with the partners and the LEP) does not envisage ‘high density’ development as currently defined in Policy DM23. ABP request additional wording in the final paragraph of Policy CS2.
Policy CS2 should be amended as follows “…and low elsewhere, unless otherwise agreed through masterplans and provided that in all areas it does not compromise heritage assets.. “ or wording of similar effect.
