More employment land is needed, particularly new business/enterprise parks. More encouragement towards new business and new enterprise as possible.
The Council has not considered other options in more rural areas of the district.
For example, It is not always appropriate to locate a new guide dog training school in an urban centre, where housing is close by.
The Core Strategy Preferred Options could be more flexible and response to the needs of differing organizations. Identification of new supply, could consider the types of sui-generis uses that may need to be accommodated on employment land, and locate it accordingly.
