The Employment approach set out in Issues and Options runs the very real risk of repeating past mistakes. Employment is dynamic and national policy is clear in its strong support for economic growth. The SWLP should be actively seeking the very best employment land opportunities over the plan period. As set out, there is too much emphasis on established sites, regardless of their relevance or economic potential. If existing sites are in decline or failing to attract new businesses then the chances are that they are inappropriate, in the wrong place or past their sell-by date. The SWLP provides the opportunity to identify new sites that will ensure sustainable economic growth, retain and attract new high value employers to the area. The Henley-in-Arden Vision document provides an example of how this can be achieved.

No

This generic, one-size fits all approach is inappropriate. Circumstances differ. Local planning and at the more detailed level, neighbourhood planning, should identify different circumstances when it is/isn't appropriate for such tests to take place.

DLPDS agree that the Local Plan policies should provide flexibility that allows land for commercial uses that are unviable to be put to alternative uses. This will help to secure the most efficient use of land in ensuring the development needs of South Warwickshire are met. Existing employment land should not be protected for its own sake. It is appropriate that evidence is required to demonstrate the current use is not viable, or that there is a sufficient supply of employment land. Whilst this should not be onerous, it is appropriate that it include a period of marketing to show that an existing use is not viable.

Yes

Agree, but aware that current NPPF guidance and permitted development right changes may make this approach difficult to achieve/implement. No further comments.

Atherstone Airfield is not sustainable as an employment site, as there are no transport links, or housing in close proximity. For this site to be enlarged , a major investment in transport needs to be made, to unlock transport and congestion in Stratford town. Without a full transport plan, this site should be withdrawn.

This is the first time I have become aware of a proposed new business park development in Thickthorn, Kenilworth. If this is on the site of Thickthorn Wood, or will impinge on this site, I oppose the development. I am also curious as to why the industrial estate at the bottom of Common Lane was turned into housing, the argument then was that there wasn't a need for industrial buildings in Kenilworth. What has changed?

The site at Atherstone airfield is primarily serviced by the road system crossing the river Avon over the historic Clopton Bridge at Stratford upon Avon. Until such time as a proper by pass of Stratford leading to the A46 north to the M40 and beyond, no further expansion of Atherston Airfield or for that matter industrial areas in and around Long Marston should be allowed.

The adopted Core Strategy for Stratford-on-Avon allocates approximately 100ha of land for the expansion of Jaguar Land Rover (Proposal GLH). The Core Strategy is now nearly 7 years old, and Jaguar Land Rover as a business has evolved in that time in response to issues such as Covid-19, changes in the global economy, and the climate change agenda. In light of those issues, its employment land needs have changed in respect of Gaydon. First and foremost, it needs to retain the ability to expand its operations at Gaydon to respond to changing demands on the business. However, that expansion must be on land it controls and on land which is contiguous with its existing operations in order to maintain security and efficiency in how it operates. For that reason, sites 375 and 376 have been put forward through the call for sites process to the Councils as land on which it controls and wishes to utilise for the secure and efficient expansion of its operations at Gaydon over the lifetime of the Plan. Should those sites be deemed by the Councils as suitable for the expansion of operations at Gaydon and allocated as such within the South Warwickshire Local Plan Part 1, then it no longer has a requirement for the 100ha of land at Proposal GLH within the Core Strategy. In that context, Jaguar Land Rover therefore would not object to the removal of the allocation as part of the South Warwickshire Plan process. If the land at Proposal GLH was to be considered by the Councils for a new allocation, Jaguar Land Rover would support its allocation for employment development, particularly uses associated with the automotive industry and its supply chain.
