Alternative Uses: Tourism, Outdoor Sport, Recreation and Community Facilities

Economic development sites in the countryside may be redeveloped for tourism, outdoor sport and recreation, or local community facilities if they meet the criteria and are not part of an existing industrial estate.

On occasion, proposals may come forward for the alternative use of economic development sites in the countryside. Proposals for the redevelopment of sites for tourism, outdoor sport and recreation or local community facilities will be viewed sympathetically where all the above criteria can be met and where the proposal does not involve land forming all or part of an existing industrial estate.
