Economic Development – Incompatible Uses

The Council will not permit development near existing or approved economic development uses that would be incompatible with or prejudice the operation of those uses, particularly where a clean or sterile environment is required.

Policy DM 3: Economic Development – Incompatible Uses DM 3.1 The Council will operate a presumption against development near an existing or approved economic development use that would be incompatible with this use or that would prejudice its future operation. DM 3.2 In the assessment of such proposals the Council will continue to apply the Supplementary Planning Guidance on Policy PED 8 of PPS 4 (2012).
