Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 4853

Received: 17/03/2023

Respondent: Environment Agency

Representation Summary:

We note that a significant proportion of the housing numbers proposed through the Local Plan will be delivered by Neighbourhood Plans. We have highlighted key criteria for individual locations that we would wish to see considered by those Plans when allocating sites. Where possible we would wish to see these included within the Local Plan policy but as you will be aware we have produced a checklist for Neighbourhood Plan groups in your district which will guide the identification of sites and other key issues and opportunities to be addressed in the future.
