Development and Site Allocations (DaSA) Local Plan - Options and Preferred Options

Representation ID: 22708

Received: 20/02/2017

Respondent: Mrs Rosalyn Day

Representation Summary:

I support Rother enabling Parish and Town councils pursuing their own Neighbourhood Plans, but question the ability of Rother to co-ordinate satisfactorily the outcomes of those NPs to secure sufficient housing development sites within the RDC set timetable. Will Rother offer more help to local Parish and Town councils to secure that objective? The NP liasion officer at RDC left in 2016 and has not been replaced yet. Since then, there appears to have been very little support from Rother for NPs.
