Questions whether part c) of DS4 which proposes that site allocated for employment development should be in close proximity to existing or proposed housing represents effective spatial planning. Not all employment development is compatible with residential development. B1 offices are suitable but considered as a town centre use the location of which should be considered via a sequential approach. There are previously-developed sites on the edge of Leamington town centre, which are being proposed for residential development which should be subject to this sequential approach. B2 and B8 are less suitable for residential areas therefore the strategic approach to residential and employment allocations should recognise this.
