Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission
Representation ID: 4871
Received: 17/03/2023
Respondent: Environment Agency
We are supportive of policy requirement 12 given that part of the site fall within areas of high fluvial flood risk. Flood storage capacity must be retained, or compensated for on a level-by-level basis with hydrological connection to the existing floodplain. Residential development must be directed to areas of the site at lower flood risk.
As for all site allocations, we are supportive of the policy requirement for suitable phasing to ensure adequate wastewater treatment capacity is available (requirement 13).
