1.In order to ensure that a reasonable level of holiday accommodation is available to sustain a bouyant tourism industry, the Great Yarmouth Seafront Local Plan states that there will be a presumption against any change of use of existing holiday accommodation to permanent residential, aged persons' accommodation or any other non-compatible uses within the defined areas of prime holiday accommodation.The proposed hostel involves the loss of holiday accommodation within the prime holiday area and would therefore be contrary to the provisions of the Plan and prejudicial to the Council's strategy for tourism.
2.The pre-deposit consultation draft of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan was issued for consultation purposes on 1st.August 1994 and reinforces the policy relating to prime holiday accommodation as contained in the Great Yarmouth Seafront Local Plan.The proposal is considered to be premature and potentially prejudicial to the determination of appropriate local plan policies for the seafront area in that approval would create an undesirable precedent for a further erosion of holiday accommodation within the limited areas designated for prime holiday purposes.
