Chichester Harbour Conservancy is seriously concerned about this allocation. The NPPF states "The scale and extent of development within all these designated areas should be limited, while development within their setting should be sensitively located and designed to avoid or minimise adverse impacts on the designated areas." To further urbanise the boundary would have a disastrous impact on the AONB designation. The Conservancy cannot support Policy A13 without knowing further details about the location of the development, the mitigation measures, etc. Furthermore, as with A11 and A12, the Policy may conflict with other draft Policies in the Local Plan.
Until there is greater clarity as to the impact of the allocation on the AONB, the Conservancy must Object.
