OVERALL
Whilst I commend the work put in I am dissapointed in the attitude to the South Downs National Park. Whils I acknowledge that they are their own planning authority the CDC has a major role in their area and are advised of planning being applied for. In this instance, the 2035 review I believe the CDC should have taken a much more decisive attitude and issue a requirement that they provide substantial land for both employment and domestic development. National directives do not prevent such an approach and I believe that many residents within the SDNP would support inner development to retain and expand accomodatio for those who wish to stay within its boundary to work and live. There is ample scope to develope within the SDNP.This approach would go a long way to allieviating the overdevelopment of the corridor along the A259.

POLICY SA6 Land to the South - West of Chichester.
Whilst the merits of development along the southern border of the A27 twix Fishbourne and Donnington can be seen I believe that building height restrictions would be needed to mitigate the impact views torardso and from the city and the AONB making this far less attractive. There is also a need to pay regard to possible improvements to the A27 ,a potential which can not be ignored. I believe this proposal should be shelved and held in reserve for a later plan.
The link road is a factor which in my view must be reconsidered with its impact on accessability to the already conjested Fishbourne roundabout., If it is to be recommended there must be mitigation by a flyover east - west at this junction, A27, with pre-agreement with Highways \aengland for this to go ahead.The level of the road is also a concern with views, noise and pollusion all a factor. It would seem preferable to divert traffic from the south, east of the southern development area as it is to join the A27 at the Bognor road crossing where there is more scope for a raised crossing.Highways England involvement is urgently needed here.

POLICY SA9 Fishbourne.
I can not see how the perceived view of Fishbourne can be uphed. The determination of its character appears at varience withother villages.
The structure of the village can not support a further 250 houses as there is no supporting facilities and no funding is available, nor raisable through this development, for educational, services or transport facilities . The infill of strategic gaps which is a policy of national and local government departments is being breached. The projected area is shown as preferred over an area to the east of the village which has previously been put forward for development because of the newly raised wildlife corridor and the same considerations should be applied to the preferred area taking it out of consideration..

In conclusion I must say that this plan can not be constructed in isolation and special representations should be made to The Government to delay further consideration until the A27 improvement stratagy is determined.
