Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 1242

Received: 06/02/2019

Respondent: Heather McDougall

Representation Summary:

Paragraph 4.2.2 states that Chichester is meeting the unmet need of the SDNP, however the national park should fulfil its allocation to ensure the communities there have sufficient affordable housing and growth to thrive. By adopting this unmet need, development is being squeezed into an increasingly smaller area of Chichester between the sea and the national park; the SDNP has sufficient land capacity to accommodate this development sympathetically and has a duty to support its rural communities.
