Representation Summary:

SEEDA supports the preferred strategy for Bexhill to provide additional business and employment opportunities within the town as part of comprehensive mixed use developments and welcome the joint working approach to Employment and Land Strategy.

The RES identifies 9 priorities for the Coastal South East and considers that the preferred strategy for Bexhill town centre would go some way to achieving these targets.
