Received: 28/01/2009

Respondent: Northiam Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The aim to reduce the need to travel by car will be much less attainable if development takes place in villages with few job opportunities.
Water supplies in the south east are already under pressure and the proposed increase in dwellings would not appear to be sustainable in this respect.
