Representation Summary:
It is considered that Policy DM25 is too restrictive in the context of the Cliff Quay site (IP067) and the Council should allow release of the land for non-employmet uses if there is lack of market demand or unsuitability of the land. It is suggested that tests of suitability of market demand (through a 12 month marketing exercise) be included in the policy as exception tests to allow surplus employment sites to come forward; this would accord with NPPF paras 51 and 22.
