Representation Summary:
If the Character Study presently underway is able to provide the rationale where and where not tall buildings may be acceptable this will need to be adopted within a specific DPD and/or AAPs. Should DM DPD describe the process for how the spatial and design issues will become policy?
Some oif the wording used in the suggested option appears a little vague and may need to be tightened up to avoid unintentional loopholes; eg. 'relate well', 'a point of visual significance' and 'highest standards of architecture' could conspire to justify a tall building in an inappropriate suburban or remote setting.
