Employment land demand and monitoring
The adjusted forecasted demand for employment land is approximately 37,000 sq.m per year or 550,000 sq.m overall during the plan period. The take-up of existing employment land will be monitored and supply managed to reflect changing circumstances.
Taking into account the forecasted demand which has been adjusted to reflect the actual uptake rates over the past three years there is a minimum need for approximately some 37,000sq.m/year and 550,000sq.m overall. The take-up of existing employment land will be closely monitored, and its ongoing supply managed to reflect changing circumstances.
