RESOLVED:
That confirmation of three Article 4 Directions, which will withdraw the permitted development right that allows B1(c) light industrial units to change to C3 residential use without planning permission, be agreed. The three Directions cover the following areas (see also Maps at Appendix 1 to the report):
(i) the Vale Royal / Brewery Road Locally Significant Industrial Site (LSIS);
(ii) the Central Activities Zone (CAZ) within Islington; and
(iii) other B1(c) locations across the borough.
Reason for decision
– to protect light industrial land use, which is an important
part of the borough’s diverse economy and which provides
employment opportunities for local residents.
Other options considered – none other than as specified in the report.
Conflicts of interest/dispensations granted – none
