ABP supports the identification of the Island Site as an opportunity area, and generally supports the points set out under 'Development Opportunities' and 'Development Principles'. ABP requests the removal of reference to "lower rise development" in the supporting text and to "generally low rise development (3, 4 and 5 storeys)" to allow more flexibility in the development of a viable scheme capable of addressing the particular development costs on this site. ABP also requests the removal of "(max 50%)" against the residential reference, allowing a more flexible proportion of acceptable uses.

This opportunity area is relatively coherent in terms of the sites it covers along the Waterfront. References to the built historic environment are good, but there also needs to be consideration of archaeology issues. We welcome statements such as maintaining the character of the conservation area and retention of historic structures. Low rise development is appropriate although it is debatable whether 4/5 storeys qualifies as low-rise.
