E2 Other employment sites

Outside key employment sites, the redevelopment and/or reuse of employment sites to an alternative non-employment use will normally be permitted provided all of the following criteria apply:

  • The development will not prejudice the efficient and effective use of the remainder of the employment area
  • Any existing appropriate class E, B2 and B8 businesses affected by the loss of employment land should be relocated to alternative premises so viable businesses are not affected.
  • The site has been marketed as an employment site for an employment use suitable to the site and location at a suitable price, by appropriate means for at least two years with no viable interest
  • There is a substantial over-supply of suitable alternative employment sites in the local area, and
  • There are specific issues with the continued use of the site for employment which cannot be mitigated sufficiently
