Respondent: East Sussex County Council

it would appear that in practice there would be little to differentiate Option 2 from Option 4 in terms of outcomes i.e. accessibility issues and increased car dependency.

Options 1 and 3 appear to be a variation on a theme and reflect the methodology adopted by the County Council in determining the housing distribution for the "Rest Of East Sussex" undertaken as part of the South East Plan process.

Irrespective of the approach taken it is important to recognise that where schools are already full, the ability for them to expand should be taken into account, as some village schools are on small sites where additional building will be difficult if not impossible.
