Schedule of Potential Main Modifications
Representation ID: 29503
Received: 04/11/2021
Respondent: Essex County Council
4. Consistent with National Policy
The deletion of the word ‘normally’ from paragraph 7.22 b. removes ambiguity (as there is no definition of what constitutes ‘normal’ in this context) and removes opportunities for applicants to justify that their application represents a departure and that a full 24-month active marketing is not required to justify the lack of viability of the site for employment use. The proposed deletion is in line with paragraph 16 d) of the NPPF.
This modification addresses ECC’s Reg.19 Rep 22404 and the position in the Statement of Common Ground (F17D) between BBC and ECC.
