I agree that sustainable drainage is critical for all future development. Given that new development should ensure flood risks are not increased elsewhere, it is wrong for the BEX5 site in Knole Road to be allocated for development. It is a greenfield site and currently plays an important role in draining the frequently flooded neighbouring properties. The whole site slopes gently towards the listed terrace to the south which has basement flats.
