Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035
Representation ID: 2787
Received: 07/02/2019
Respondent: Sussex Wildlife Trust
Representation Summary:
SWT objects to this allocation as we have no confidence that the value of this site as functional linked supporting habitat has been sufficiently assessed. As stated in our comments in relation to the HRA the lack of robust evidence in terms of the usage to farmland in Chichester District by Dark-bellied Brent Geese is concerning. It is irresponsible of CDC to allocate a site for development without sufficient knowledge of whether it is deliverable in terms of the requirements of the Habitat Regulations.
Whilst we maintain our objection, if CDC choose to progress the allocation then we request amendments.
