(354/99)   Centre/Dental Practice (D1) - refused. Science Park properties
           are restricted to following uses:
           1)  scientific research
           2)  light industrial production which is dependent on regular
               consultation with:
               a)  their tenants' own research development and design staff
                   established in the Cambridge Study Area
               b)  the staff and facilities of the University or of local

           3)  ancillary buildings and works appropriate to the use of a
               Science Park.

           and constant visits by patients would be detrimental to the working
           environment of immediate neighbours.
