Full text:

Hempnall Parish Council would like to see the employment land already allocated in the JCS developed before any new sites are added. A large amount of the land allocated in the JCS for employment use remains available. The development of these existing sites should be prioritised before any new sites are added.

Allocated sites should be adhered to. This means that no exceptions should be made, particularly for larger businesses, to develop sites outside these allocated areas. If any such un-planned growth were to be permitted this would lead to further erosion of the area’s landscape and environment, along with issues regarding the sustainability of any such sites.
