Representation Summary:
I applaud the lack of intention to develop the countryside on The Abbey and Little Park farm areas of the town.The affordable housing issue for first time buyers, whatever the agreed percentage of dwellings, I see as a problem.At Battle and Langton School access between the school and the adjacent bungalow for vehicles to the amenity field parking could be achieved. Commercial Trading should, as far as possible, be retained in the traditional town centre.The future emphasis must be as a Tourist Town, but other shops and essential services are vital.The need for extra grocery store footage is debatable as I feel that Jempsons/Budgens Store is underused.
