Representation ID: 23994

Received: 20/11/2018

Respondent: Chris Horne

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

As previously submitted I have major concerns in respect of BEX9.
The site is not suitable for development due to the proximity to Pevensey Levels. The applicants are unable to prove there will be no impact on said protected area.
The local highways and traffic levels will be unable to accept further vehicle movements without major congestion and risk of vehicle on vehicle accidents.
The site allocation has been driven not by RDC officers considering acceptability BUT by a landowner and developers coercing a weak planning department.
The site is outside of the existing Development Boundary which exists to protect existing settlement and protect from over development of greenfield sites.
