Housing Policy 11 was referenced by the Senior Planning Officer as a key policy presupposition for future re-submission, implying it relates to the suitability of the building for change of use in this context. The officer noted the building lacks architectural or historic interest, suggesting this fails a test under the policy. No detailed assessment was conducted as the application was withdrawn.
