Employment land study (2007)
The employment land study was commissioned in 2007 to provide an evidence-based analysis of the district and recommendations on future employment planning policies.
The study includes recommendations on:
- determination of the amount of employment land required, by types of activity and their broad distribution
- the need to protect employment land from being lost to alternative uses
- the support for a wide range of economic activity in rural areas particularly through rural diversification and the reuse and adaptation of rural buildings to employment use and
- the considerations to be applied in the expansions or diversification of existing employment concerns, particularly those located outside development limits
