Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Policy DM18: Flood Risk and Water Management

Representation ID: 2561

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Chichester Harbour Trust

Representation Summary:

We would wish to see inclusion of the regional policy framework for flood risk and shoreline management (the Solent Shoreline Management Plan) and the aspiration to create new guidance for East Head to Emsworth.

We object to the allocation site at Highgrove Farm, Bosham with approximately 13 ha of open countryside allocated to a minimum of 250 houses.

This development in the countryside directly conflicts with policy S24 Countryside and Policy S26 the Natural Environment; which clearly states there should be no adverse impact on the openness of views in and around the coast, designated environmental areas (i.e. the AONB) and the setting of the South Downs National Park. The proposed development at Highgrove Farm directly contradicts these policies.

We strongly believe that this development would cause irretrievable harm to the landscape character, setting and context of Chichester Harbour AONB and the intervisibility with the South Downs National Park. We feel that the measures proposed within the policy would not be able to sufficiently mitigate for the damage this development would cause.

Policy DM30: Development and Disturbance of Birds in Chichester, Langstone and Pagham Harbours Special Protection Areas

Representation ID: 2564

Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Chichester Harbour Trust

Representation Summary:

We welcome the inclusion of the policy on recreational disturbance and fully support the comprehensive text. Our reservation is that the policy and mitigation scheme described can only have a limited impact on the effects of recreational disturbance in reality. Therefore we urge that other measures are implemented as detailed throughout the plan to provide alternative public open spaces, particularly for exercising dogs, as standard practise for each new housing development.
