Representation Summary:

Support allocation of the Island Site for residential/residential-led mixed use. Support references (paragraphs 4.7 and 4.10) that figures included in table 1a are “indicative”.

Will work with IBC to agree deliverable masterplan to deliver Council’s regeneration objectives subject to commercial viability.

Indicative capacity of 421 homes considered to be high. Consider that the Island Site will deliver a reduced density of approximately 150 units.

Considered inappropriate for Policy to refer to need for “additional vehicular … access (including emergency access)…to be provided to enable the site’s development”. Matter should be addressed in the masterplan preparation - request reference is removed.

Change suggested by respondent:

Request removal of reference to need for “additional vehicular … access (including emergency access)…to be provided to enable the site’s development”.
