Policy S11 is wholly inconsistent with the proposals for Chatham Docks. Chatham Docks would not meet the proposed test for non-employment redevelopment as it is neither no longer appropriate or viable nor has there been no market interest in the in the site, nor has been market for a reasonable period (of 12 months). This demonstrates again the lack of consistency within the draft Local Plan, and the failure to properly consider of the redevelopment of Chatham Docks and its wider consequences. It is not considered in the sustainability appraisal.
