Core Strategy Consultation on Strategy Directions 2008

Representation ID: 19325

Received: 30/01/2009

Respondent: Romney Holdings Ltd

Agent: Rural Partners Ltd

Representation Summary:

In principle Romney Holdings Ltd support the Preferred Strategy for Rye and Rye Harbour, however they question the strategy(Section eii) for the Town Centre.
Sustaining a viable Rye Town Centre is accepted and supported, but it is felt that siting additional shopping provision on Harbour Road, adjacent to Rye Harbour should not be over looked.

(Section fii) It is understood that some of these sites do not currently have the benefit of adequate flood defence and would question the wisdom of putting to much reliance on this problem being resolved. It is therefore felt that other brownfield sites in Rye and Rye Harbour should be considered for allocation.
