Excellent plan but very limited in forward view. Why no mention of future tech advances in wind turbines, molten salt reactors at Dungeness, extended out fall to help sewage overflows.

Please see attached comments from Burwash Parish Council.

Q2 I agree in principle that houses should be built in places with services but existing infrastructure needs to be taken into account, eg in Robertsbridge, key roads are too narrow to accommodate more traffic even if more people walk or cycle.
Q6 Agree Rother should require more than the minimum energy efficiency standards.
Q11 Good
Q13 Rainwater harvesting should always be required- I cannot see how you met the 110l pp pd target without it.
Q19 Encourage solar arrays above supermarket car parks before any greenfield sites.
Q33 "Short trips of up to 3 miles can be easily made on foot or bicycle...." Rather depends on your fitness and the gradients, not easily for many people.
Q44 This should also include designing to keep houses cool.
Q120 I would like a more robust attitude towards developers who say it is not viable to include houses for rent. Instead of just caving in , the choice should either be comply with the rules or offer the site to someone who will.
Q127 If anything, increase size standards.
