Support SP3(c)(ii): Employment allocation at Baldock

Full text:

I support the creation of additional space for business by the railway line in the east of Baldock. This is sensible - it will create employment opportunities in the local area and may help to reduce a small part of the additional through traffic that will be caused by so much housing development to the east of Baldock (when all other areas of employment lie to the west of Baldock and the district). Such development should be of the B1 categories described, due to the limited road access, the rural setting and the proximity to the new housing developments, and due to the size and shape of the area (large industrial or warehouses would not fit well and so be unlikely to be developed).
