Employment Land and Premises Supply Assessment 2022

Description

The Council is looking to commission an Employment Land and Premises Supply Assessment for the borough. This assessment will be a detailed analysis of Sefton's current supply of employment land and premises, both occupied and unoccupied. The assessment should calculate the current supply of employment land and premises in Sefton including an assessment of availability, quality and suitability, with reference to how this contributes, or can contribute, to meeting an identified employment land needed in the borough. The assessment should consider employment land and premises on allocated or designated employment sites in Sefton and non-designated sites that are available and suitable for employment use. The Sefton Local Plan was adopted in April 2017 and the Council are expected to review this in 2022/23. The Employment Land and Premises Supply Assessment will assist with informing the Local Plan review with regard to employment demand and supply. The Council are currently progressing a Bootle Area Action Plan for the area in the south of the borough centred around the town of Bootle. It is expected that the Employment Land and Premises Supply Assessment will inform the Bootle Area Action Plan as it progresses to examination, expected in 2023-24.
