Representation Summary:

Waste Planning

It is noted that Pebsham Household Waste Recycling Centre and Waste Transfer Station and the Pebsham Waste Water Treatment Works are within the Bexhill and Hastings/St Leonards Strategic Gap (DEN3) but excluded from the Countryside Park (HAS5). Additionally, the link between waste management and the Countryside Park as set out in the Pebsham Countryside Park Project Development Strategy (January 2007) appears to have not been pursued. It is suggested that for consistency that either the above waste management facilities are excluded from Policy DEN3 or the link between waste management and the Countryside Park is reflected in HAS5.

Waste Planning

Policy DEN3: Strategic Gaps & Policy HAS5: Combe Valley Countryside Park
It is noted that Pebsham Household Waste Recycling Centre and Waste Transfer Station, which is a safeguarded waste site, and the Pebsham Waste Water Treatment Works are within the Bexhill and Hastings/St Leonards Strategic Gap (DEN3) but excluded from the Countryside Park (HAS5). Additionally, the link between waste management and the Countryside Park as set out in the Pebsham Countryside Park Project Development Strategy (January 2007) appears to have not been pursued. It is suggested that for consistency between these two policies that either the above waste management facilities are excluded from Policy DEN3 or the link between waste management and the Countryside Park is reflected in policy HAS5.
