Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission
Representation ID: 4272

Respondent: Chichester Harbour Trust
Whilst we welcome this policy for development management, it should be noted that the delivery of the Plan is overly reliant on development in the countryside through the spatial strategy. Of the 3,225 homes proposed between Chichester and Southbourne, overwhelmingly they will be built on greenfield sites. We would hope to see much greater focus on delivery of brownfield sites and urban locations.
