Representation Summary:

This proposal is not justified. It does not meet the employment needs of the district community, will negatively impact on the road systems and environment, and is a significant risk to the reputation and financial sustainability of Harborough. The proposal will not increase the diversity of employment opportunities in this area, nor will it bring employment benefits to borough residents. Significant developments within a 10-mile radius are already providing sufficient opportunities for this type / level of workforce, and there is a concern that this does not meet a market need.
