Representation ID: 21022

Received: 11/11/2011

Respondent: Rother and Hastings CPRE

Representation Summary:

CPRE Sussex welcomes and supports the principle of the inclusion of 'Conserving environmental quality" as one of the "Main Issues" in paragraph 4.2. As recognised in "Portrait of Rother District", the great majority of the District is of very high environmental quality, in either landscape or nature conservation terms. The conservation of this quality is a priority both nationally and locally. However, conservation of this high quality is not enough - there are opportunities that should be sought and taken for the enhancement of that quality. CPRE Sussex therefore believes that the issue should be "conserving and enhancing environmental quality".
