Representation ID: 602
Received: 02/10/2013
Respondent: Westbrook Properties
Agent: CBRE Planning
Representation Summary:
Proposed amendment(s): We regard this policy as overly prescriptive, for two reasons:
1. In general terms it fails to reflect the fact that successful town centres of the size of Brentwood must offer more than simply A1 retail. At the very least the policy should make clear that a range of A uses will be acceptable in certain locations, such as the units surrounding the public realm at the Baytree Centre where A3 and A4 uses could make an important contribution to its vitality and viability.
2. Such an approach would ensure consistency with Policy DM27.
