Option 5 is based on the Conwy Economic Growth Strategy which looks to drive forward a higher rate of economic growth resulting in a need for between 18.8 and 24.5 ha of additional employment land. Given that this Growth Strategy has been adopted by the Council, it would seem illogical that the LDP might not then look to put in place a planning strategy that would support the achievement of its goals.
For the above reasons we consider that Option 5 is the Option that should be pursued.

Noted - Since publication of the Economic Growth Strategy, as part of its LDP evidence base and in line with PPW, the Council commissioned an Employment Land Review (ELR.) The ELR looks at a range of growth scenarios based on past take up rates, economic growth forecasting, population projections, relevant strategies and significant regional projects. After reviewing these scenarios, the preferred approach is the scenario which combines economic forecasts with significant regional projects. This scenario allows for upto 14ha of additional employment land (including an allowance for contingency which is based on past take-up rates.)
