Respondent: Ian Saunders

Representation Summary:

I support the redevelopment of all 4 sites, on the proviso that it's entirely for housing and careful consideration is given to providing a mix of affordable housing. (Building more student accommodation is not the solution for the needs of the permanent residents of the District) The Council must ensure that every possible opportunity for creating new jobs and supporting existing employers in the region are fully explored. Redevelopment of tired industrial estates or the creation of new embryo technology parks must be paramount in their vision for the future. Without local employment opportunities, the whole plan fails dismally!
