E1 Protection of key employment sites and enterprise zones
Key employment sites will be protected through the following criteria:
- Within key employment sites (listed above and identified on the Policies Map) applications for appropriate class E, B2 (general industrial), B8 (storage and distribution) will be permitted. Other similar uses will be permitted subject to proposals not having a significant adverse impact on surrounding land uses.
- The use of key employment sites for employment purposes other than appropriate class E, B2 and B8 may be appropriate, if it can be proven that the use provides on-site support facilities, or demonstrates similar economic enhancement to appropriate class E /B2/B8 uses. Such development will not prejudice the efficient and effective use of the remainder of the employment area.
- Main town centre uses that do not fall within appropriate parts of use class E, or other uses that do not fall within use classes B2 or B8 will not be supported, except as ancillary facilities to service a key employment site. Exceptionally, uses which have trade links with employment uses or are un-neighbourly in character, (such as car showrooms, tyre and exhaust centres, or trade counters), may be permitted on employment sites which have good access to a range of transport options.
- Other uses that do not provide direct, on-going local employment opportunities will not be permitted.
