Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 397

Received: 27/01/2019

Respondent: Mr Mark Jarrad

Representation Summary:

Even considering the building of 250 homes within this AONB would be an unmitigated disaster, totally ruining the landscape and overwhelming the infrastructure of this already vulnerable village. My home has already flooded twice and sewage has emerged from a manhole immediately outside my home. The services in this area simply cannot cope with this scale of urbanisation. Any development on Highgrove Farm should be limited to a maximum of 50 dwellings. Bosham is a village of character and historic importance to be protected and nurtured. Far more appropriate sites are available and the over-development of Highgrove Farm is unacceptable.
