This study was commissioned by Torbay Council to review employment land to inform the emerging Local Development Framework (LDF) and Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) and to provide guidance on wider regeneration issues. The review provides:
- Guidance on the appropriateness and feasibility of existing employment land allocations
- Advice on the scope to unlock the economic development potential and to increase the productivity of existing employment areas, particularly the Business Investment Area and Small Business Areas identified in the Local Plan
- Advice on the availability of additional sites that have potential for employment use
- An indication of the scope for job creation within Torbay from allocated and new sites and:
- The consequences for the development plan strategy of the loss of employment land to other uses
A copy of the main report of the Torbay Employment Land Review can be purchased for £60 (plus £3.00 P&P) by contacting the Strategic Planning Group on the details below. A summary of the study is available below.
