To help deliver vital housing numbers that the area and surrounding counties so desperately need, further support should be provided to enable the essential infrastructure improvement works to go ahead. CDC should then revise the housing numbers in Policy H1 to reflect the local housing need.

The justification for not meeting the housing needs in full is set out in the Housing Need and Transport Background Papers (May 2024). The latest Duty to Cooperate evidence is set out in the updated Statement of Compliance

Given evidence published in HELAA, number of dwellings identified for Fishbourne should be amended. Development of site at Clay Lane would result in sustainable infill of otherwise vacant site and would introduce appropriate uses within the area, including delivering a supply of high-quality residential units in a highly accessible location. Development of the site would not result in unacceptable adverse impacts on highways network and development could be achieved alongside wildlife corridor.

The Housing Distribution Background Paper (May 2024) sets out the justification for the non- strategic parish numbers set out in Policy H3.

The site allocation for Policy NE4 Strategic Wildlife Corridors should be amended to only include the boundaries of proposed site given that the site is regularly managed and the Strategic Wildlife Corridors Local Plan Review Background Paper (December 2018) notes that the watercourses and field margins are only required within this sites section of the corridor in providing connectivity up to the A27 and beyond.

The site HFB0012 is located within the Fishbourne and Chalk Streams Biodiversity Opportunity Area. The background evidence also indicates that there is a bat network within this area, which contributes towards the justification for the inclusion of the entirety of the site within the West of Chichester to Fishbourne Strategic Wildlife Corridor
