Consider that site 1 (appendix 1) should be removed because:
- Futura Park has had extensive marketing since early/ mid 2012.
- There has been no interest in the frontage plot for B Class uses consistent with the 2011 permission.
- It has attracted no interest despite being serviced and benefiting from a permission.
- The New Anglia Enterprise Zone in 2016 has not led to new interest.
- The plot has a different townscape character to the remaining parts of Futura park;
- Could accommodate other non B class uses;
- Interest in sites 6 and 7

There is no reasonable prospect of site 1 being used for employment purposes. There has been more than 12 months active marketing. The removal of the plot will have no material impact on employment land supply in Ipswich as there is already an over-supply of proposed allocations. The removal of this 1.22ha plot will result in a residual land supply of 30.98ha. The removal of the site also leaves circa 26ha of suitable industrial land in excess of the 9ha required. To comply with NPPF paragraph 120 there is justification to de-allocate site 1 and consider a more deliverable use.

Futura Park lies within 200m of the boundary of the
Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and
is therefore considered to be within the setting of the nationally designated landscape. Whilst we acknowledge that much of this site is already built out and is physically separated from the AONB by the A1189, any future development applications, especially site IP141a should be supported by an assessment of impacts on the Natural Beauty of the AONB. This includes use as a Park and Ride site as indicated in para 4.4, of Policy SP9 (Safeguarding land for transport infrastructure).

The traffic impacts of this development must be assessed cumulatively along with the 24 hectares of development proposed at Ravenswood.

Highways: Site is likely to have a significant on junction already under strain and junction (capacity) enhancement may be necessary to avoid cumulative residual severe impact.
