“MIS.1 - Gaydon – JLR/AML – it is proposed to release the existing 100ha. JLR restricted allocation to allow general strategic manufacturing and small-scale logistics uses (under 9,300 sqm), with the emphasis on strategic B2 manufacturing. Large-scale logistics (B8 class) uses will be resisted on this site.
We will engage with JLR regarding alternative sites that may be suitable for their future development needs so that their requirements are met. The existing Aston Martin Lagonda (AML) 4.5ha. allocation in the adopted SDC Core Strategy may however be retained within the SWLP, subject to further discussion with AML on their future plans for the site.”
We agree with this approach, making this 100 ha employment allocation available for the wider market will vastly increase the level of employment provision available in the local area. As already mentioned, the release of this land to the wider market will further increase employment provision and providing justification for identifying locations, such as land off Old Town, Kineton Road, Gaydon for residential development close to new employment.
