Greater clarity about housing and industrial use.
IMS is heavy industrial and located adjacent to residential. Is this the best place for this industry? Where do we want them? What type of industry do we want in each area? How are we supporting transport links to the industrial areas or is there shared parking for them to prevent spillage onto the local areas.
Towerfield industrial estate is in poor repair - this need investment so we can attract quality business into the area rather than it looking like it is dying.
New building on the corner opposite chalkwell park is residential on the top floors but commercial on the ground floor. Do we need more additional commercial footage on the ground floor of all development or can this be changed to residential especially on the London Road?
