Tel 01624 685950 o DWG 25_819_03 Rev A - Existing & Proposed Site & Floor Plan - received 16 December 2025 o Drawing Issue Sheet - received 17 December 2025 This decision has been made for the following reasons(s) The proposal is acceptable as the site is designated as Industrial Land in the Area Plan for the East (2020), and while the use does not fall within the specific industrial categories supported under Employment Proposal 1, it is functionally compatible with the established character and employment role of the Ballalough industrial estate and remains wholly within the designated industrial area, in accordance with Employment Proposal 7.

The development gives rise to no unacceptable visual, amenity, ecological, highway or flood risk impacts and accords with the relevant provisions of the Strategic Plan (2016), including Strategic Policy 1, Strategic Policy 5, General Policy 2, Business Policy 1 and Environment Policies 4, 5, 7 and 13. When read as a whole, the proposal represents an appropriate, compatible and policy compliant employment related use of allocated industrial land.
