Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 3986

Received: 10/03/2023

Respondent: Mrs Jane Towers

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

I do not consider the location of most of the development to be well located. Both Tangmere and Southbourne are outside the city, Southbourne by a distance of 6 miles. There is insufficient evidence to show that there will be any modal shift to alternative forms of transport than the car. Transport links are poor and the distances too great for most people to walk or cycle. Cycling links to the city from both Tangmere and Southbourne are poor. Public transport is irregular, infrequent and expensive.

Received: 15/03/2023

Respondent: The Goodwood Estates Company Limited

Agent: HMPC Ltd

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

Recent history suggests new developments have been site-centric providing ‘lip-service’ to wider economic, social and environmental needs. Policies applicable to allocations or general developments should specify the minimum standard each should meet in terms of Plan objectives and developers required to provide demonstrable evidence in support.

Change suggested by respondent:

The plan should explain how it will ensure new development takes account of the listed issues.
