Representation Summary:

Whilst generally supportive, objection to exclusion of IP035 from the ‘arc of land’, where tall buildings may be appropriate, as shown on IP-One Area Inset Proposals Map. Costs of developing IP035 are such that high density development, potentially involving ‘tall buildings’, will be required. Council has granted planning permission to redevelop the site for mixed use purposes, with buildings ranging from 7-11 storeys and ‘tall buildings’ have been developed on a number of adjacent sites. Policy will potentially frustrate development of this key Waterfront site - therefore, unsound. Impacts upon adjacent listed buildings and heritage assets, addressed under DM13.
