This approach is consistent with the NPPF and is generally supported by Hermes, as it encourages development in the most sustainable way. However, this approach should not undermine efforts to bring forward retail uses as part of the master-planned residential led mixed use development of the West Horndon industrial estates.
Policy for the redevelopment of the industrial estates should be framed in a similar fashion to the preferred options draft of the LDP, which set an objective of an appropriately sized retail offer for West Horndon - and was largely been supported by local residents and the Parish Council.
