Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 1152

Received: 05/02/2019

Respondent: Mr Roger Baynham

Representation Summary:

Site AL6 land south west of Chichester includes a flood plain. This means it is not suitable for housing or industrial development. The relief road would only be built with money from the housing development. How will the houses be accessed until the road is built? Similarly the industrial area.
The road would have to be elevated by some 2.5 metres above the flood level meaning it would be some 4 metres high thus destroying the views of the cathedral and south downs.
