Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 4124

Received: 15/03/2023

Respondent: Chichester Harbour Trust

Representation Summary:

Cross reference to our response to NE5.
We support the inclusion and comprehensiveness of this policy, but argue that it is in effect incompatible with the levels of development proposed in the Plan, particularly relating to the east-west corridor between Chichester and Emsworth, along the boundary of the Chichester Harbour SSSI/SPA/SAC designated site. Any proposed mitigation measures must be deliverable, funded and monitored effectively, otherwise they will not have an impact in preventing further ecological deterioration of the Harbour.
