Link to application
A couple of years ago the Government allowed offices to be converted to residential accommodation without the need for planning permission. The Prior Approval process gives the Council limited ability to prevent this happening only if they have issues with highways and transport, flooding and/or contaminated land.
From our point of view a residential development on the White Horse Business Park is ridiculous. Whilst the Pavilions have been empty since Virgin Mobile left it remains the best (probably only) significant opportunity for attracting a major employer to the Town. On the other hand we are not short of houses!
