Revised Development Strategy

Respondent: Friends of the Earth
Representation Summary:
-Studies of the demand for employment land have shown that changes in types of work from industrial to more office-based professions have meant that less land is needed to provide similar numbers of jobs that before. The studies have suggested that there is little need to allocate more land for employment purposes.
-The current consultation proposals have in part been superseded by the recent decision to grant planning consent for the Coventry Gateway site. Due to the allocation of land in this location, as well as the proposed allocation at Thickthorn Kenilworth, only a very small land allocation will be needed elsewhere in the District.
