Representation Summary:

In section 10.83 of the supporting text, Chichester Gravel Pits and Leythorne Meadow is referenced as an SNCI. This needs to be amended to LWS (Local Wildlife Site).

Support inclusion of bullet point 7 in policy which should recognise the sensitivities of surrounding habitat and need for impacts to be avoided as per section 179 of the NPPF 2021. Bullet point 7 references Chichester Gravel Pits and Leythorne Meadow as a Local Nature Reserve - should also state that site is a Local Wildlife Site.
