Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 4686

Received: 17/03/2023

Respondent: Mr Simon Davenport

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

With the increasing city housing density which is to be welcomed, gardens as a healthy recreation are needed and the provision of allotments in particular needs to be increased possibly with the emphasis on smaller plots to start with more ancillary support building and possibility for social interaction- much as seen in northern Europe, where the resources can be enjoyed for other leisure hours apart from food production.

Change suggested by respondent:

Increase the number of allotments and gardens in the community by removing the threshold of house numbers.
