Object to Land at Maudlin Farm, Westhampnett’ - did not feature at Regulation 18 stage. SA stated Southbourne development unlikely to be deliverable in first 5 years. Planning Ref. SB/22/01283/FULEIA for ‘Land at Harris Scrapyard & Oaks Farm’, (discrete land parcel of proposed BLD) would provide delivery of at least 50 dwellings in period to 2026 and 103 dwellings by 2027. Southern Water have confirmed suitable foul drainage can be accommodated for the development. SA therefore incorrect as proposed development can provide early housing delivery as part of BLD. If this is the reason for introducing an allocation at Maudlin Farm, and altering spatial strategy, at this late stage in the plan-making process, then Spatial Strategy is flawed.
