Incompatibility with Economic Development Enterprises
Certain developments may be incompatible with existing economic uses, such as when industrial uses would contaminate sensitive industries, or when residential development would prejudice existing industrial operations through adverse effects like noise or emissions.
Some proposed developments may be incompatible with economic development enterprises already operating in the vicinity. For example, certain types of industrial use would be incompatible with existing industrial undertakings requiring a particularly contaminant free environment [such as life sciences, food processing and research and development sectors]. In other cases, new development, such as housing, could prejudice the continued existence of a particular economic development use. Such cases can arise where the particular processes being carried out have a tendency to cause adverse effects of some kind on adjacent land, even when all reasonable remedial measures have been taken by the operator.
