Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Development Strategy

Representation ID: 1502

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Wisborough Green Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Wisborough Green Parish Council is concerned that the plan seems to turn the focus of development in Service Villages to be driven by opportunities. Villages do need to adapt and grow but to be successful this has to be sustainable - both in context of infrastructure as well as small scale in context to the community size. There seems to be no demonstration of why an opportunistic approach will better serve the service village communities than the more even distribution approach in the current plan.

Policy S5: Parish Housing Requirements 2016-2035

Representation ID: 1509

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Wisborough Green Parish Council

Representation Summary:

4.27
WGPC is concerned that 6 months to get an updated NP to examination could be punitive to communities. If CDC overtake community NP progress with imposed sites this would wholly undermine the good work of NPs. We don't think 6 months is realistic. Assuming all communities were able to synchronise updating their NPs simultaneously, we seriously doubt that CDC has considered its ability to engage with all at the same time. Surely this target is set up to fail? WGPC recommends this time limit is removed or extended as it is unrealistic and risks undermining principles of NPs.
