Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 4698

Received: 17/03/2023

Respondent: Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Limited

Agent: David Lock Associates

Representation Summary:

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars (R-RMC) supports the Council’s commitment to securing safe, sustainable, connected and accessible transport options in the district. R-RMC wishes to encourage the Council to ensure that transport mitigation sought from development is proportionate, reasonable and directly related to the development. While cumulative impact is an important consideration, individual sites should not be burdened with a requirement to mitigate all cumulative impact singlehandedly. This would be inconsistent with national policy and the planning obligations tests set out in Regulation 122 of the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010.
