The proposed development meets the aspirations of the future desired character of the area in all regards in that it provides a desired range of uses, combining a high level of retail, accommodation, hotel, office, and associated uses which are complementary to one another, encouraging 24-7 usage and a wide range of economic development, employment, short stay, and residential use of opportunities.
