The provisions of this policy are supported, and particularly those set out in criterion (e) which refers to no unreasonable restrictions on existing business operations and facilities. Existing businesses and uses should not be prejudiced nor penalised by the introduction of new uses. All new developments should be required to demonstrate that existing uses and their operation can be protected for the long term. The G L Hearn evidence based study Mixed Use Development: Overcoming barriers to delivery at North East Cambridge makes reference to the need for new development to mitigate impacts such as noise effects from current land uses in line with the ‘agent of change’ principle introduced through the NPPF 2018.
