A small part of the site (0.4ha) had planning permission (04/00790/B) for the erection of a corporate headquarters. The permission has now lapsed.<br><br>The site is available; however, the site is subject to a covenant which restricts development to offices used as corporate HQ‟s, as referenced at the CRDO inquiry.

| 3 Braddan | Ballakinnish Nurseries | 4.10 | Nil | DOI rejected site inclusion, not zoned no consents, no buildings, lapsed access problems, included by CRDO Inspector, Government Owned | 4.10 (Available now, although more likely to come forward in the medium to long term i.e. not for immediate release) | The site was identified on the 1982 Plan as „Market Garden‟ but the users of the site moved elsewhere a number of years ago and the site is now in Government ownership. The future of the site will need to be reviewed as part of the Area Plan for the East. It is unlikely to come forward in the short term, but may have some potential as employment land in the medium to long term so the site has therefore been included in the figures. |

| which was granted approval on the 21st August 2012.<br><br>The current application is proposing to develop a warehouse and an entertainment centre on sites 5A/5B.

The facts of the matters: 1) The site was included in the 2010 Employment Land Availability study, 2) the Department argued that the site should be deleted at the CRDO public inquiry on highway grounds. However, the Inspector noted there were insufficient reasons to suddenly delete the site and the site should be included in the list of available sites.<br><br>3) The site is still included in the 2011 Employment Land Availability.<br><br>The land use zoning may be reviewed when considering the Area Plan for the East; however, the consideration of alternative uses is premature. The site is available as employment land and therefore included in the assessment. | |||||
