Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission
Representation ID: 3948
Received: 09/03/2023
Respondent: Southbourne Parish Council
In principle, the PC supports the proposed BLD at Southbourne. Southbourne village has been identified as a settlement hub due to the facilities it offers, even though a number of these are currently inadequate. Paragraph.6.89 of this Local Plan states that the proposed development provides the opportunity to make good the existing shortfalls (eg open space, para.6.85) and to provide well-serviced new development. This development must be achieved through comprehensive masterplanning. There has been, and continues to be, pressure for piecemeal proposals. These must be rejected to secure a properly planned expansion which maximises the provision of timely accompanying infrastructure.
