DM 1.2 Assembly and Protection of Large Office Development Sites
To promote the assembly and development of sites for large office schemes in appropriate locations. The City Corporation will:
- assist developers in identifying large sites where large floorplate buildings may be appropriate;
- invoke compulsory purchase powers, where appropriate and necessary, to assemble large sites;
- ensure that where large sites are developed with smaller buildings, the design and mix of uses provides flexibility for potential future site re-amalgamation;
- resist development and land uses in and around potential large sites that would jeopardise their future assembly, development and operation, unless there is no realistic prospect of the site coming forward for redevelopment during the Plan period.
