Great Yarmouth Borough Council

No.	Condition Text
1.	The application seeks to retain retail floor space outside of the main town centre defined by UCS07 and is also more than 300 metres outside of the Primary Shopping Area. Policy R1 requires that where main town centre use development is proposed that a retail sequential assessment is conducted to ensure that there are no suitable or available sites within designated centres or edge of centre sites. No such assessment has been submitted as part of this application and therefore it has not been demonstrated that there are no sites which are in a sequentially preferable location. The proposal fails to comply therefore with Core Strategy Policy UCS07 and Local Plan Part 2 Policy R1.
2.	STATEMENT OF POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT (REFUSALS): In accordance with the NPPF, in determining this application for planning permission, the Borough Council has approached it in a positive and proactive way and where possible has sought solutions to problems to achieve the aim of approving sustainable development. Unfortunately, despite this, in this particular case the development is not considered to represent sustainable or an acceptable form of development and has been refused for the reasons set out above.
