Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Characteristics of the Plan Area

Representation ID: 2489

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Chidham & Hambrook Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The term East-West Corridor used with in regard to west of the City of Chichester is ill defined and the use of this term implies the focus of policy is on transport and through movement to the detriment of a more balanced focus on local settlement, existing residential, local countryside and amenity issues.
There is a lack of vision, clarity and coherence of planning policy towards the Bourne Villages, their character and the surrounding countryside that lies between the South Downs AONB and Chichester Harbour AONB

Policy S2: Settlement Hierarchy

Representation ID: 2490

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Chidham & Hambrook Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Chidham & Hambrook, among the other Bourne villages, is characterised as a 'service village' with no definition or explanation of what this means. This term does not reflect the special and unique character of any of these areas, it designates them as no more than utilitarian dormitory communities.
"The largest level of growth is expected in the service villages and settlement hubs, able to accommodate higher levels of growth without adversely impacting the character of the settlement". An increase in growth of housing stock by 55% will undoubtedly negatively impact Chidham & Hambrook.

Policy S6: Affordable Housing

Representation ID: 2496

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Chidham & Hambrook Parish Council

Representation Summary:

There is a disproportionate number of detached and 4 bed houses currently in our housing stock. We would like to see a commitment for Social Housing in addition to Affordable Housing, which many local people cannot afford to rent or buy. This means many young people leave the area. There is too much flexibility given to developers here in delivering the housing need for the area. They must deliver their "affordable" requirement if sufficient housing to meet local needs is to be provided.

Representation ID: 2497

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Chidham & Hambrook Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Specialist housing and housing for the elderly will require a lower density as it will be single story. It is essential that there are robust measures that will enable high quality homes to be built to enable elderly people to remain in their community should they need to move into adapted housing more appropriate to their needs. Similarly, life long homes for those with a disability who need specialist housing.
