Representation Summary:

Too many houses, no sustainable sites

6.62 to 6.65 Policy AL9

Fishbourne has had significant development in recent years. An additional 250 houses need to find a sustainable location. The area on Clay lane has now potentially been removed by the sudden imposition of a Wildlife Corridor. We support Wildlife Corridors but this one is in an area where development has already taken place and was being proposed by CDC.

Development on Bethwins Farm is hugely damaging to the village and encroaches on Bosham. It is not supported by the village. It removed important farm land and separates the Harbour from the South Downs. No other land has been identified as deliverable.
We propose that this 250 houses is reduced to a more manageable level in consultation with the Parish Council
