The number of opportunity areas has reduced since 2007 so there are gaps between some of the remaining areas. This means some important sites (eg IP089) fall outside opportunity areas so their development may not align with aspirations for the opportunity areas. Identification of development sites in each opportunity area does not always correspond with site allocations (e.g. IP039a) and needs clarifying. No references to scheduled monuments and archaeology is also a concern. Development principles for each area are welcomed but development criteria are needed for specific sites.
