H3: Conversion of Non-Residential Buildings to Residential Use

Conversion of non-residential buildings to residential use will be supported where:

  • the permanent loss of the previous use would not have a material adverse impact upon the local commercial environment or community; and
  • the proposal accords with other relevant policies and standards in this Plan.

The conversion of premises into residential use will be resisted where the premise is a ground floor commercial unit within the Borough’s town, district, neighbourhood or local shopping centres.
