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.

Concerned that the Westgate site has no occupier, but suggest residential accommodation. Grafton way site could be residential/hotel led. Suggest Tacket St/Cox Lane has short mall linking Carr St to Upper Brook St plus multi-storey car park and residences. Need for increased long stay car parking capacity questioned, main problems are cost and access. Suggest review of parking needs, switching long stay to short stay, re-opening Bury Rd, Park & Ride. Air quality needs to be assessed and short car journeys discouraged accordingly.
