1. This application for change of use to a recreational facility from a industrial facility is totally in appropriate for the site. The current allotment of car parks is not adequate for the businesses that exist in the complex and if you change this unit to recreational it will require many more car parks than it already uses. If the unit is zoned industrial it usually needs 1 car park to 100m2 but if it changes to recreational it will need 1 car park for 25 to 33m2. Please check this closely as it will effect all businesses in the complex.

2. My concern with the change of business is related to the current allotment of car spaces within the centre. The development itself would be a great addition to our complex, it would draw a more varied cliental into our premises and help us expand our businesses.

   However, as is noted by the above comment the change of use for these business premisses would place our current car park under increased strain. This would lead to people "inventing" their own car spaces inside our allocated current parking structure which would make the whole place more dangerous. It would also negatively impact on our current business as an inability to find appropriate parking would drive our customer away.
