Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Respondent: Sussex Wildlife Trust
Slightly concerned about policy as support text highlights some potential facilities in 7.44 but acknowledges list is not exhaustive. As we progress to the policy wording, the first sentence references land currently or last used for community facilities, public services, leisure and cultural uses. Potential uncertainty as to what is covered as 'a facility', we recommend that the policy includes wording which acknowledges the site/land may form part of Green Infrastructure Network and therefore the integrity of network should be considered. This would be consistent with DM34 approach: Open space, sport and recreation including indoor sports facilities and playing pitches.
