Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 2321

Received: 17/01/2019

Respondent: Mr Robert Marson

Representation Summary:

Object to AL6 due to conflict with Policy S27 Flood Risk Management.

The proposed plan to build a link road in Apuldram/Stockbridge to service employment and residential use is contrary to the council statement related to risk of flooding especially as this area is on flood plain level 3.
Housing and Employment would be better placed around Lavant and West Broyle land outside of the SDNP as (a) CDC are absorbing housing from the SDNP (b) siting affordable housing in this area, close to where it is needed, would be more sensible and would be in line with strategic objectives.
